A tier is the level of member copayment for a specific prescription drug under a drug benefit plan. Tier 1 medications are generic medications and have the lowest copayment. Tier 2 medications are preferred brands and have the second-lowest copayment. Tier 3 medications are non-preferred brands and have the second-highest copayment. Tier 4 medications are specialty drugs and have the highest copayment. Please refer to your benefit booklet to determine if the Tier 4 Formulary applies to you, or check your BCBSNC member ID card for four levels of pharmacy copayment.
