Prescription Drug Transition Policy

Transition process requirements will be applicable to non-formulary drugs:

  • Prescription drugs that are not on your formulary
  • Prescription drugs previously approved for coverage under an exception once the exception expires
  • Prescription drugs that are on your formulary but require a prior authorization or step therapy, or that have an approved quantity limit lower than your current dose

Eon Health’s transition process applies to:

  • New members and members who switch from one plan to another after the start of the contract year
  • Current members affected by negative formulary changes
  • Members residing in long-term care facilities
  • Current members affected by the expiration of an approved exception

During the first 90 days of enrollment, Eon Health covers a one-time, temporary supply of a non-formulary drug. Eon Health extends up to one month transition supply of medication (unless the prescription is written for fewer days) to members for drugs that are not on our formulary as well as drugs with restrictions or limits.

For members residing in a long-term care facility, Eon Health’s transition policy provides for at least a 91 to 98 day supply of medication (unless the prescription is written for fewer days). After the transition period has expired, Eon Health provides for at least a 31-day emergency supply (unless the prescription is for fewer days). Also, for members being admitted to or discharged from a long-term care facility, Eon Health provides a refill upon admission or discharge.

Call Eon Health’s Member Service department at 1-888-906-3889 (TTY: 711) for more information. From October 1 – March 31, seven days a week, from 8am – 8pm and April 1 – September 30, Monday through Friday, from 8am – 8pm (you may leave a voicemail Saturday, Sunday and Holidays)
