New for 2008 — Value-Based Prescription Drug Plan Design
New for 2008, you’ll have more reasons to participate in the CareAllies Smart Steps Care Coordination program available through Your Plan for Health. If you are living with or become diagnosed with diabetes, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or heart disease, you could reduce or even eliminate the cost of the prescription medications you take specifically for these chronic conditions. When you actively participate in care coordination your copay for any generic drugs you take for these conditions will be waived, and the coinsurance amount you pay for the formulary brand-name drugs will be reduced by 50 percent. The list of generic and formulary drugs that are associated with the four chronic conditions can be found at hr.osu.edu/oe/RxVBDGuide.pdf. For more information on the Value-Based Prescription Drug Plan Design, contact CareAllies at 1-800-579-0534 or the Office of Human Resources at service@hr.osu.edu, (614) 292-1050, or 1-800-678-6010.
