Medicare Prescription Drug Plan members: Learn which drugs are covered by your plan by reviewing the Medicare Prescription Drug Plan drug list. This drug list also includes drugs covered by Blue Medicare HMO and Blue Medicare PPO.

Retail Specialty Drug Network: Certain specialty drugs must be purchased at a BCBSNC retail specialty drug network pharmacy in order for your prescription to be covered (see your benefit booklet for any other requirements that might apply). Learn which specialty drugs are affected and which pharmacies are participating.

Your search results will include:

  • Generic availability
  • Tier classification
  • Average cost
  • Medication class
  • Alternative options
  • Important notes about the drug coverage

This search is based on the Tier 4 Formulary used by many of our plans. Drugs are assigned into one of four categories, or copayment tiers, based on drug usage, cost and clinical effectiveness.

To find out if the Tier 4 Formulary applies to you, please refer to your benefit booklet or your BCBSNC member ID card.
