PERS ODS Advantage Rx benefits
The PERS ODS Advantage Rx plan offers members a wide variety of valuable prescription drug benefits, including the following:
- An open formulary that includes almost all eligible Part D drugs
- Generic: A generic drug has the same active ingredient formula as the brand-name drug. Generic drugs usually cost less than brand-name drugs and are rated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be as safe and effective. You generally pay less for a generic drug than a brand-name drug.
- Brand: A prescription drug that is manufactured and sold by the pharmaceutical company that originally researched and developed the drug.
- 40 percent coinsurance up to $150 for generic drugs
- 40 percent coinsurance up to $450 for a 90-day supply of brand drugs
- Catastrophic coverage limit (True out-of-pocket (TrOOP) maximum) of $4,550
- After your annual out-of-pocket drug costs reach $4,550, you pay $0 coinsurance and PERS ODS Advantage Rx pays in full for Part D-covered drugs
- Access to in-network pharmacies in Oregon, Washington and across the U.S.
- Access to a mail-order pharmacy
- A 90-day supply through retail or mail-order
