  • Blue Cross and Blue Shield Enhanced July 2021 Dispensing Limits
    Enhanced Dispensing Limits (DL) Drug dispensing limits help encourage medication use as intended by the FDA. Coverage limits are placed on medications in certain drug categories. Limits may include: • Quantity of covered medication per prescription • Quantity of covered medication in a given time period If your doctor prescribes a greater quantity of medication than what the dispensing limit allows, you can still get the medication. However, you will be responsible for the full cost of the prescription beyond what your coverage allows. The following brand drugs, and their generic equivalents, if available, have dispensing limits. Some of these dispensing limits may not apply to all members or may vary based on state regulations. Some dispensing limits listed below may apply across multiple medications within a drug class. Some plans may exclude coverage for certain agents or drug categories, like those used for erectile dysfunction (example: Viagra). Some drugs may not be available through mail service. Coverage for some drug categories, such as specialty or other select non-specialty medications, may be limited to a 30‑day supply at a time depending on your particular benefit plan. Please see your plan materials or call the number on the back of your ID card to verify if you are uncertain of any plan limitations or exclusions. This list is subject to change.
