  • Health Care Reform
    Health Care Reform Preventative Drug list At Magellan Rx Management, we are driven to helping our clients most effectively manage changes in the prescription drug environment. As part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), effective on or after August 1, 2012 non-grandfathered plans are required to cover select FDA-approved drug products related to preventive health services for Adults, Children and Women without a member having to pay a copayment, co-insurance, or meet a deductible. As your pharmacy benefits manager, we will support coverage of specific products at $0 copay as prescription benefit plans become subject to the law. Magellan Rx Management will also routinely update FDA-approved product lists to comply with the Preventive Health mandates and require prescriptions for product coverage. MRx has created ten specific lists that address the preventive health requirements above. A plan is required to cover all the drug lists below, either through the pharmacy or medical benefits. If the plan needs advice regarding coverage, MRx recommends the plan connect with their respective legal counsel. The content of the list will be maintained by Magellan Rx Management and will be continually reviewed and updated to ensure compliance with healthcare reform mandates. UPDATE: For plan years beginning on or after September 24, 2014 (January 1, 2015 for calendar year plans), non-grandfathered health plans are required to cover prescription medications designed to reduce the risk of breast cancer in women, without cost-sharing, subject to reasonable medical management. These required drugs have been added to the “Preventive Health for Adults, Children and Women: Prescription and OTC Products” list below.

Abstract: While contraceptive drugs have enabled many people to decide when they want to have a baby, more than 100 million unintended pregnancies each year in the world may indicate the contraceptive requirement of many people has not been well addressed yet. The vagina is a well- established and practical route for the delivery of various pharmacological molecules, including contraceptives. This review aims to present an overview of different contraceptive methods focusing on the vaginal route of delivery for contraceptives, including current developments, discussing the potentials and limitations of the modern methods, designs, and how well each method performs for delivering the contraceptives and preventing pregnancy.
