Retiree RxCare may add or remove drugs from our formulary during the year. If we remove drugs from our formulary or add prior authorization, quantity limits and/or step therapy restrictions to a drug and/or move a drug to a higher cost-sharing tier, we will notify you of the change at least 60 days before the date that the change becomes effective.

There are two exceptions to the 60-day advance member notification requirement:

1. If the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) deems a drug on our formulary to be unsafe or the drug’s manufacturer removes the drug from the market, we will immediately remove the drug from our formulary. 2. When the FDA approves a first time generic for a brand name drug, we may immediately allow a brand to generic substitution. Notification to the member will be made but can occur after the substitution is made.
