Prescription Coverage

Prescription coverage is provided through a formulary, in-network benefit program. Coverage is effective the first of the month following 30 days of full-time continuous employment. The prescription program is available to employees who are enrolled in the University's Group Medical Insurance Program.

For Pharmacy:

Prescription drugs purchased at a retail pharmacy may be filled for quantities up to a 90-day supply. One prescription co-payment will be collected for each increment of a 30-day supply of prescription drugs purchased at a retail pharmacy.

There is no co-payment for generic drugs, a $15 co-payment for preferred brand name drugs, and a $30 co-payment for all other non-preferred generic or non-preferred brand name drugs.

For Mail Order:

Two prescription co-payments will be collected for each increment of a 90-day supply.
