Some PDP's list certain Tier 3 & 4 drugs as Step Therapy. I am relatively new to writing more volume in PDP's/MAPD's.
I am concerned about suggesting a plan with step therapy, to save, say, $50/100 a year--or even more, and then have them go through a big hassle with step therapy, getting approval to just take the drug they were prescribed if it's working.
Bonus comment: This year it seems there are big differences in the results I am getting for plan comparisons on Medicare.gov, from the company sites, particularly for the Humana plans.
Anyone have suggestions for best practices on plan comparisons? I need a method that is the most accurate/least time consuming.
