The list of drugs covered by our pharmacy benefit<br />

is called our formulary. Most drugs are included<br />

in our formulary.<br />

We use a variety of approaches <strong>to</strong> manage your<br />

pharmacy benefit. Some of these approaches<br />

include the three-tier pharmacy copayment, prior<br />

authorization, step therapy, quantity limitation,<br />

and designated specialty pharmacy programs.<br />

QUICK TIPS TO SAVE MONEY<br />

* Get a prescription for a generic drug<br />

when possible<br />

* <strong>Use</strong> CVS Caremark Mail Service <strong>Pharmacy</strong><br />

for maintenance medications<br />

* Talk <strong>to</strong> your doc<strong>to</strong>r about less expensive<br />

alternatives for your medications<br />
