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. The PDL has more than one drug for treating a condition. Some of the drugs are generic. This means that they are not name brand, but they are comparable to the name brand drug and work the same way.

How to Request a Medicine Not on the PDL

You can ask us to cover a medicine that is not on the preferred drug list. This is called asking for an exception. Please fill out this form to ask for an exception or call Member Services at 1-833-230-2005 (TDD/TTY: 711).

Prior Authorization

Some prescriptions may need prior authorization. This means that a drug will need to be reviewed and approved before you can fill it. Your provider will make this request for you. Learn more about prior authorization.
