Managing prescriptions drug costs

The medical field is making rapid advances with many new treatment options and specialty drugs entering the market. While this progress is exciting and opens new possibilities for the future, it is also driving rapid cost increases in the prescription drug market.

To ensure that the plan remains affordable and sustainable, ONE-T has built protections into the plan to proactively manage rising prescription drug costs.

  • Lowest cost alternative limitation
    Where the Plan reimburses you based on the cost of the lowest-priced alternative drug that is available.
  • Prior Authorization
    Where certain specialty or high-cost treatments require authorization to be eligible for reimbursement from the Plan.

Learn how you can help manage costs! In addition to these built-in protections, there are things you can do, as a benefits “consumer,” to help keep the Plan affordable now and into the future.
