SISC CO-PAYMENT REFERENCE GUIDE
Medco manages your prescription drug benefit at the request of SISC. Your plan gives you the option of getting your covered medications through the Medco Pharmacy™ mail-order service or at a participating retail pharmacy.
Your plan features a list of generic and brand-name drugs called the Preferred Prescriptions® drug list. This list includes a wide selection of medications manufactured by all the major drug companies. These medications have been selected by an independent group of doctors and pharmacists for safety and efficacy. The list includes only medications approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
These medications are “preferred” because they offer you choice while helping to keep the cost of your prescription drug benefit affordable. “Non-preferred” drugs, which are not on this list, will cost you and your plan more. Your doctor can help you save money by prescribing generic drugs or preferred brand-name drugs. Be sure to bring the Preferred Prescriptions drug list with you each time you visit your doctor. You can also visit us online at www.medco.com to get the most up-to-date formulary information. After registering, click on “Learn about formularies” in the “Prescriptions & benefits” section. You can search for medications by name or by category and print out information to share with your doctor.
