What drugs are covered?

Tufts Health Direct uses a Preferred Drug List (PDL), also known as Formulary, as our list of covered drugs. To quickly find out if we cover a specific drug, look it up in our PDL. The PDL applies only to covered drugs you get at retail, specialty and mail-order pharmacies. The PDL does not apply to drugs you get if you are in the hospital. We cover first-time prescriptions and refills.

For more information, please read our Pharmacy Medical Necessity Guidelines.

Where can I fill prescriptions?

A pharmacist at a large-chain or an independent pharmacy can fill your prescription. You can use our Find a Doctor, Hospital, or Pharmacy tool to find a pharmacy near you.

You can also get your prescription medications by mail through our mail-order pharmacy, OptumRx.
