Prescription drugs

As a contracted provider in the Aetna Better Health of Ohio network, you will receive a copy of the Preferred Drug List (PDL) that is updated annually in the Provider Manual.

For additional information and guidelines about the PDL, please review your Provider Manual. There also are several forms available below to assist you with a variety of needs.

What is the Aetna Better Health of Ohio Formulary?

The Aetna Better Health of Ohio formulary is a list of drugs selected in consultation with a team of health care providers. The drugs we chose represent the prescription therapies believed to be a necessary part of a quality treatment program. Aetna Better Health of Ohio will generally cover the drugs listed on our formulary as long as the drug is medically necessary.

Aetna Better Health of Ohio prescription drug plans are available to all of its members. In addition, prescription drug plans filled at an Aetna Better Health of Ohio network pharmacy may qualify for additional savings; however, other plan rules may apply.

View the latest Formulary. The formulary is continuously under review, and as changes occur, the version on the website is updated.

For a drug that is not on the List of Covered Drugs (formulary), a statement must be provided documenting trial and failure of the formulary medications or a medical reason why the formulary medications cannot be used.

For information on benefits, see Part D Prescription Drug. For more detailed information on prescription drug coverage, please review the Aetna Better Health of Ohio Evidence of Coverage and other member materials, or contact Member Services at 1-855-364-0974 (24 hours a day, 7 days a week).
