Preferred Drug List

CareSource PASSE pays for all medically necessary, CMS participating, Medicaid-covered FDA-approved products on the Preferred Drug List (PDL) at many pharmacies. These are drugs we prefer your provider to prescribe. Our PDL has more than one drug for treating a condition. These options are called alternative drugs. Alternative drugs are just as effective as other drugs with similar side effects.
