At EmblemHealth, we offer Medicare plans that cover a wide range of prescription drugs. Below is a complete list of all covered drugs in our comprehensive formularies. This list includes both generic and brand name drugs, and they are listed in levels or “tiers”, based on cost. The lower the level or tier, the lower your cost for the drug will be.

Prior Authorization means that you will need to get approval from your plan before you fill your prescriptions. If you do not get an approval, your plan may not cover the drug. Below is a list of drugs that require prior-authorization.
