If you purchase a preferred or non-preferred drug when a less expensive generic alternative drug is available, you must pay the difference between the cost of the brand name drug and the generic drug plus the applicable generic copayment. This difference does NOT count toward your annual deductible. Sometimes the cost difference is quite large.
The generic, preferred, or non-preferred list of covered drugs is reviewed periodically resulting in changes to the prescription drug list throughout the year. If you are taking a medication that is affected by one of these changes, Express Scripts will mail a letter to your address on file to alert you of the change in benefits. Please refer to the Express Scripts website at www.express-scripts.com/ut or call Express Scripts Customer Service ( 1-800-818-0155 ) for current information on specific medications.
