Prescription Drug Programs
Participants in HealthSelectSM health plans are automatically enrolled in a comprehensive prescription drug program. Each plan, except Consumer Directed HealthSelectSM, has a $50 annual prescription drug deductible that must be paid before the plan pays anything for prescriptions. The annual deductible for Consumer Directed HealthSelect is higher and applies to both medical care and prescription drugs. The deductibles are based on a calendar year, which is from January 1 to December 31.
The following copayments apply to all prescription drug programs, after the deductible is met.
