UHA Drug Plan P features a tiered co-payment structure. Your co-payment is based on the type of drug that is used to fill your prescription. Annual maximum out-of-pocket $3,850 per person; $5,200 per family(Excludes mandatory generic substitution or other DAW penalties)
*Or 20% of Eligible Charge if the Eligible Charge for a 30-day supply is over $200.00 for each original prescription or each covered refill except for medications coded by Medi-Span and approved by the FDA to treat Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Cancer, and HIV.
Oral chemotherapy drugs are covered in accordance with Hawaii law. Your co-payment would either be the preferred brand or generic tier (if a generic is available).
Mandatory Generic Substitution PolicyIf a Preferred or Non-Preferred Brand Covered Drug is obtained when a generic equivalent is available, the member is responsible for (i) the difference in Eligible Charge between the Preferred or Non-Preferred Brand Covered Drug and the generic equivalent, and (ii) the generic co-payment. By requesting generic drugs you can reduce your costs. Speak with your physician about the drug that is appropriate for your medical condition.
