Select Drug Program®

Prescription plan for groups

The Select Drug Program® is a formulary-based program. The Select Drug Program formulary includes all generic drugs and a defined list of brand drugs that have been chosen for their reported medical effectiveness, positive results, and value.

The Select Drug Program formulary is designed to include all therapeutic categories and provide physicians with prescribing options. In addition, the formulary is reviewed periodically to add new drugs and to remove brand drugs when a generic equivalent becomes available.

  • There is no need to pre-select a pharmacy.

  • No claims forms needed when participating pharmacies are used.
  • Members can verify their eligibility at participating pharmacies online before they leave the house.
  • Participating pharmacies can instantly check available drug history for possible drug interactions and other dangers.
