Plus Rx – Formulary

What is the CareSource Formulary?
A formulary is a list of covered drugs selected by CareSource in consultation with a team of health care providers, which represents the prescription therapies believed to be a necessary part of a quality treatment program. CareSource will generally cover the drugs listed in our formulary as long as the drug is medically necessary, the prescription is filled at a CareSource network pharmacy, and other plan rules are followed. For more information on how to fill your prescriptions, please review your Evidence of Coverage.

CareSource covers both brand name drugs and generic drugs. Generic drugs have the same active-ingredient formula as a 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 as brand name drugs.

This formulary may change during the year.
