Additional Plan InformationDrug List OverviewBlue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina offers three drug formularies (drug lists) so Medicare beneficiaries can have options for their prescription needs. Blue Medicare HMO Enhanced, HMO Essential and Blue Medicare PPO Enhanced share the same Medicare prescription drug list. This list is based on a preferred list of FDA-approved prescription drugs and was developed using guidelines from the federal government. The drug list includes many highly utilized generic drugs and some brand name and specialty drugs. This list also includes a lower cost tier for some maintenance medications related to High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol and Diabetic conditions. Blue Medicare Rx (PDP) Standard Plan prescription drug list is also based on a preferred list of FDA-approved prescription drugs and was developed using guidelines from the federal government. The drug list for this plan has many highly utilized generic drugs and some brand name and specialty drugs. Many of the most popular generic prescriptions are included. The Blue Medicare Rx (PDP) Enhanced prescription drug list is based on a preferred list of FDA-approved prescription drugs and was developed using guidelines from the federal government. The drug list includes more generic, brand name and specialty drugs. Generic drugs have the same active ingredient formulas as brand name drugs. Generic drugs usually cost less than brand name drugs and are rated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be as safe and effective as brand name drugs. Certain vaccinations, insulin and insulin injection supplies are also covered on all formularies. Over-the-counter drugs are not covered because they are excluded by Medicare. To encourage the appropriate use of prescription drugs, some quantities are limited and some drugs must be approved before they will be covered. For more information, see prior authorization, step therapy, and quantity limitations. Like most insurance coverage, our Blue Medicare HMO, Blue Medicare PPO and Blue Medicare Rx plans have some limitations and exclusions.
