PROVIDENCE MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLANS 2023 FORMULARY

Welcome

Your Providence Medicare Advantage Plan covers both brand name drugs and generic drugs. Generic drugs have the same active-ingredient formula as a brand name drug. Generic drugs usually cost less than brand name drugs and are rated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be as safe and effective as brand name drugs.

  • Important Message About What You Pay for Insulin - You won’t pay more than $35 for a one-month supply of each insulin product covered by our plan, no matter what cost-sharing tier it’s on (For Prime plan members: even if you haven’t paid your deductible).

  • Influenza

    Influenza — also known as the flu — is a highly contagious respiratory virus. The effects of the flu vary from person to person and range from mild to severe. The best protection against the flu is to get a flu shot each year.

    Did you know that you may be able to get a flu shot at an in-network pharmacy?
  • Flu vaccines are available at many retail pharmacy locations or through your in-network health care provider.
  • Going to the pharmacy is a convenient option as generally no appointment is needed and flu shots are covered at no cost to our members with proof of insurance.

  • To find an in-network pharmacy: You can call Customer Service at 503-574-7500 (TTY: 711), Pharmacy Services at 503-574-7400 (TTY: 711), or access the Pharmacy Directory.


    What is a Formulary?

    A formulary is a list of covered drugs which represents the prescription therapies believed to be a necessary part of a quality treatment program. We will generally cover the drugs listed in our formulary as long as the drug is medically necessary, the prescription is filled at a network pharmacy, and other plan rules are followed. For more information on how to fill your prescriptions, please review your Evidence of Coverage.
