Our Drug Formulary
The Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska drug formulary is a list of
medications included in most prescription drug benefits. Formulary drugs are
medications recommended by the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska Pharmacy
and Therapeutics Committee. These drugs are selected based on a quality
evaluation of safety, effectiveness, unique qualities and cost. The Committee
meets quarterly to update the formulary.
Depending on your coverage, you may pay lower copay amounts when your
prescriptions are filled using formulary medications. Please refer to your
Certificate of Coverage and/or Schedule of Benefits to determine the specific
coverage and prescription drug benefits available under your plan. If you have
additional questions or would like a printed copy of the drug formulary, contact
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska Customer Service Center at the number on
the back of your ID card.
IMPORTANT: The formulary may be updated at any time without notice. Please be
aware that including a medication on the formulary does not ensure coverage.
Formulary Review Requests (Non-Medicare Only)
Physicians and other health care professionals may ask for a product to be added
to the formulary. Please provide clinical studies, safety data, unique
qualities, etc. to support your recommendation. Also, please let us know if the
formulary review was requested by a pharmaceutical representative.
