Your Top Questions What is Your Choice? Are my doctors in the plan? Are my medications covered by the plan? If I get sick, what do I do? How much will I pay out of my pocket? 2

What is Your Choice? Tufts Health Plan offers a comprehensive network of quality primary care providers (PCPs), specialists and hospitals. The Your Choice plan gives you access to our full network of providers* Hospitals and affiliated physicians are grouped into tiers based on quality and cost measures Not all health care providers and hospitals charge the same costs. We ve factored in costs and have separated the providers into tiers *EPO members must stay in-network to have benefits covered. PPO members have out-of-network benefits as well. 10/17/16 3

Find a Doctor 1. Go to tuftshealthplan.com 2. Pick your Plan and then Submit 3. Select a provider type, enter your location, and search 4

What is Your Choice Can you mix and match?

What Tier is My Prescription Drug On? tuftshealthplan.com à I am a member à Pharmacy Members covered by our pharmacy benefit may fill prescriptions at any of the more than 68,000 CVS Caremark-participating pharmacies, which include retail chain stores, independent pharmacies, and designated specialty pharmacies. 10

Once you find your drug on the list, check to see if it has one of the following program designations: Pharmacy Program Program Code What it means? Prior Authorization Quantity Limitation (PA) (QL) Prior authorization is needed for your treatment. There may be a limit on how much of a drug we will cover for a given period of time. Step Therapy (ST PA ) You may be required to try a certain drug or drugs to treat a specific medical condition before Tufts Health Plan will approve the coverage of another drug to treat the same condition. Designated Specialty Pharmacy (SP) Prescriptions for certain type of specialty drugs must be filled by designated pharmacies. Non Covered (NC) Certain drugs that are experimental, are available over the counter, or have a generic equivalent may not be covered by Tufts Health Plan. New-to- Market Drug Evaluation (NTM) In an effort to make sure the new-to-market prescriptions we cover are safe, effective and affordable, we delay coverage of many new drug products until our Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee and physician specialist have reviewed them. These drugs require prior authorization. 11

Utilization Management How we use medical guidelines and standards to determine appropriateness of care To help members receive quality health care in an appropriate treatment setting, we provide utilization management (UM). UM includes evaluating requests for coverage by applying medically and necessary coverage guidelines (clinical criteria guidelines) for a determination of the medical necessity and appropriateness of the health care services under a member s benefit plan. Before (prospective): determine whether a treatment is medically necessary before it begins During (concurrent): reviews treatment during the course of care to determine medical necessity After (retrospective): review treatment for medically necessity after treatment is complete You have the right to appeal coverage decisions.
