Other Considerations
All Drugs
On a quarterly basis, new and existing products - including limited source generics, products with significant cost inflation, and
specialty and non-specialty products - may be re-evaluated to determine appropriate formulary placement. These evaluations will
assess whether clinically appropriate and cost-effective options remain available on the formulary and may result in removal,
addition or deletion of a product.
Atopic Dermatitis
As new atopic dermatitis products launch, all existing products in the class will be re-evaluated to determine appropriate formulary
placement. These evaluations will assess whether clinically appropriate and cost-effective options are available on the formulary and
may result in removal, addition or deletion of a product on the first day of any calendar month.
Autoimmune and Hepatitis C
For some clients, an Indication-Based Formulary will be utilized for products in these classes and may result in additional removals
for certain conditions only.
Drugs for Infusion Into Spaces
Other Than the Blood
A drug that must be infused into a space other than the blood will generally not be covered under the prescription drug benefit.
New-to-Market Agents
1
New-to-market products and new variations of products already in the marketplace will not be added to the formulary immediately.
Each product will be evaluated for clinical appropriateness and cost-effectiveness. Recommended additions to the formulary will be
presented to the CVS Caremark
®
National Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (or other appropriate reviewing body) for review
and approval.
The listed formulary options ar
e subject to change.

package size.
** Listing does not include certain NDCs*.

clinical need for a non-covered product, they should fax an exception request to: 1-888-487-9257.

Please note that if your prescription drug benefits plan changes, the information here may no longer apply. Medications on the A
etna Drug Guide, precertification, step-therapy and
quantity limits lists are subject to change. Not all health services are covered. Your plan may not cover certain drugs such as infertility, erectile dysfunction, weight loss and smoking
cessation. See plan documents for a complete description of benefits, exclusions, limitations and conditions of coverage. Plan features and availability may vary by location and are
subject to change. The drugs on the Pharmacy Drug Guide (formulary), Formulary Exclusions, Precertification, and Quantity Limit Lists are subject to change. The quantity limits and step
therapy drug coverage review programs are not available in all service areas. However, these programs are available to self-funded plans. In accordance with state law, commercial fully
insured members in Louisiana and Texas (except Federal Employee Health Benefit Plan members) who are receiving coverage for medications that are added or removed from the
Pharmacy Drug Guide (formulary), Precertification, Quantity Limits or Step-Therapy Lists during the plan year will continue to have those medications covered at the same benefit level
until their plan’s renewal date. In Texas, precertification approval is known as “pre-service utilization review.” It is not “verification” as defined by Texas law. In accordance with state law,
certain fully insured commercial California members (except Federal Employee Health Benefit Plan members) who obtained approval from an Aetna plan for coverage of drugs that are
later added to the Preauthorization or Step Therapy Lists or removed from the Pharmacy Drug Guide will continue to have those drugs covered, for as long as the treating in-network
provider continues prescribing them, provided that the drug is appropriately prescribed and is considered safe and effective for treating the enrollee’s medical condition. Aetna reserves
the right to periodically request clinical information from your provider to assess your medical condition and the appropriateness of your ongoing treatment. Failure to provide clinical
information could result in subsequent denial of coverage for this medication. In accordance with state law, fully insured Commercial Connecticut preferred provider organization (PPO)
members (except Federal Employee Health Benefit Plan members) who are receiving coverage for drugs that are added to the Precertification or Step-Therapy Lists will continue to have
those drugs covered for as long as the prescriber prescribes them, provided the drug is medically necessary and more medically beneficial than other covered drugs. Nothing in this
section shall preclude the prescribing provider from prescribing another drug covered by the plan that is medically appropriate for the enrollee, nor shall anything in this section be
construed to prohibit generic drug substitutions. In certain states, including Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, North Dakota,
Pennsylvania and Texas, step therapy programs do not apply to fully insured members utilizing prescription drugs for the treatment of stage-four advanced, metastatic cancer. This
material is for information only. It contains only a partial, general description of plan benefits or programs and does not constitute a contract. See plan documents for a complete
description of benefits, exclusions, limitations and conditions of coverage. Plan features and availability may vary by location and are subject to change. Providers are independent
contractors and are not agents of Aetna. Provider participation may change without notice. Aetna does not provide care or guarantee access to health services. Information is subject to
change. CVS Caremark Mail Service Pharmacy is part of the CVS Health family of companies.
