USA HEALTH PLAN – PHARMACY BENEFIT

The Plan pays 100% of the cost after the member pays a $50 annual deductible and a copay per prescription of $10 for generic, $25 for preferred brand name or $35 for a non-preferred brand name drug. The member pays the copay at the time of purchase and is not required to file a claim.

There have been some questions as to how the benefit works. This information is intended to assist with your understanding of the pharmacy benefit.

1. The $50.00 deductible starts each January 1st.

2. The first $50.00 of prescription drug cost is charged toward the deductible after which the normal copay per prescription applies. The pharmacy’s computer system is linked to the Blue Cross and Blue Shield claims system so the pharmacist should know when the deductible has been met.

3. The $50.00 deductible is limited to 3 per family. So when 3 deductibles have been met during a calendar year no other family members must meet a deductible.

4. After the $50.00 deductible has been met the copay applies to each prescription.
