How can an employee help a candidate with a non-formulary medication?

An employee can significantly assist a candidate with a non-formulary medication by accessing Patient Assistance Plans offered by the Third Party Administrator (TPA), BHPI. These plans are designed to provide financial aid or support to patients who require medications that are not typically covered by their insurance formulary. Utilizing these assistance programs can help reduce out-of-pocket costs for the patient and facilitate access to necessary treatments.

Patient Assistance Programs often include various resources such as discounts, vouchers, or even full coverage for certain medications, thereby easing the financial burden associated with non-formulary options. This is especially beneficial when a specific medication is essential for the candidate’s health but is not included in the standard formulary list. By leveraging these plans, employees can effectively guide candidates toward obtaining the medications they need without incurring excessive expenses.
