Members will utilize the Indiana Medicaid Preferred Drug List (PDL), which represents a subset of the overall FFS pharmaceutical benefit and the Over-the-Counter (OTC) Drug Formulary. The HIP pharmaceutical benefit, in general, will follow the FFS PDL. With regard to coverage of OTC drugs for HIP members, only those OTC drugs listed on the PDL are covered. HIP members do not have coverage for other OTC drugs on the OTC Drug Formulary. This means no variances between plans and therefore a simpler process for pharmacies and prescribers. Supplies currently billed via point of sale such as diabetic test strips to the MCOs and HIP will now be billed to the FFS medical benefit and will need to be billed on a CMS 1500 or 837p transaction. All non-electronic prescriptions for claims paid by the fee-for-service pharmacy benefit must meet applicable federal Tamper Resistant Prescription Pad requirements.

10. 10 What impact will this have on my patients? Package C (CHIP) members will have a $3 copay for generic drugs and a $10 copay for brand drugs As in the past, Presumptive Eligibility and HIP members will not have copays for drugs. Members received a letter communicating the changes in early December –BT200949 –Note: 42 CFR 447.15 mandates that a provider may not refuse to provide services to a recipient who cannot afford the copayment. IHCP policy is that the member remains liable to the provider for the copayment, and the provider may take action to collect it. The provider may bill the member for that amount and take action to collect the delinquent amount in the same manner that the provider collects delinquent amounts from private pay customers. Providers may set office policies for delinquent payment of incurred expenses including copayments. The policy must apply to private pay patients as well as IHCP members. The policy should reflect that the provider will not continue serving a member who has not made a payment on past due bills for “X” months, has unpaid bills exceeding “Y” dollars, and has refused to arrange for or not complied with a plan to reimburse the expenses. Notification of the policy must be done in the same manner that notification is made to private pay customers. In accordance with 407 IAC 3-10-3. February 2010
