Our goal is to provide high-quality pharmaceutical care at the lowest possible cost to you. For example, generic medications can be significantly lower in cost compared to their brand-name counterparts. What are the differences between them? Find out in Save Money with Generic Medications.

Our benefits site has details on your prescription drug benefits. Additional resources are listed below:

A formulary is a list of selected medications covered by your plan as part of your health benefit in consultation with a team of health care providers. The BSWHP Group Value Formulary is driven by the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (P&T) physicians and pharmacists who review the safety, efficacy and costs of each medication.

The tier information in the chart below applies to pharmacy benefits for all BSWH employee plans (SEQA, EQA, PPO and HSA). Using lower tier or preferred medications can help you pay the lowest out-of-pocket cost. Please note: If you have a high deductible (HSA) plan, the tier cost levels will apply once you meet your deductible.

Drug Tier Includes Helpful Tips
Tier 0 Preventive Tier 0 drugs may be available at a $0 cost share based on Healthcare Reform regulations.
Tier 1 Preferred Generics Use Tier 1 drugs instead of brand-name drugs to help reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
Tier 2 Preferred Brand Tier 2 drugs will generally have lower co-payments than non-preferred brand-name drugs.
Tier 3 Non-preferred Brands and Generics Many Tier 3 drugs have lower-cost options in Tier 1 or 2. Ask your doctor if they could work for you.
Tier SP1 Specialty Preferred Generics Specialty drugs are sometimes used to treat complex and chronic conditions and may require special monitoring and handling. Use preferred options in SP1 and SP2 when available.
Tier SP2 Specialty Preferred Brands Specialty drugs are sometimes used to treat complex and chronic conditions and may require special monitoring and handling. Use preferred options in SP1 and SP2 when available.
Tier SP3 Specialty Non-preferred Brands Specialty drugs are sometimes used to treat complex and chronic conditions and may require special monitoring and handling. Use preferred options in SP1 and SP2 when available.

Preventive care medications

Under the Affordable Care Act, also known as the healthcare reform law, BSWHP covers preventive care medications at 100% without charging a copay, coinsurance or deductible. The following list of drugs and products require a prescription (including over-the-counter medications) and filled at a network pharmacy to be covered at no cost share.

Health and Wellness Programs

Our health and wellness programs offer tools and resources aimed at one purpose: Empowering you to work towards your well-being goals in ways that work for you.

A refreshed wellness site makes it easier to access the array of programs designed to support your mind, body and spirit. Visit BSWHealth.com/Benefits/LiveWell to explore our well-being resources to see all the ways we can support you.

All employees — full-time, part-time and PRN — are eligible to participate. And you don't have to be enrolled in a Baylor Scott & White medical plan to take part.

When we are physically ill, we go to a doctor, we take medicine, we rest - we don't think twice about taking steps to feel better. Yet many of us don't treat our mental health the same way. When you're stressed, you have options—probably more than you think. A healthier, happier life is possible with these support and treatment options offered to our employees.

Not convinced these options are right for you? See three reasons medical professionals hesitate to seek behavioral health treatment...and the facts behind why they shouldn't.

A lifetime of good health starts with quality medical care throughout your life. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), this care is now within the reach of all Americans. ACA requires health plans to eliminate cost sharing and cover preventive care services recommended by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), guidelines specifically issued for women and adopted by Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA), the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and the Bright Futures Guidelines of the Academy of Pediatrics.

The following recommendations are general guidelines for all ages and should not dictate the care you receive. Your doctor will let you know what tests and exams you may need based on your specific risk factors and overall health.

  • Guidelines may change throughout the year based on new or revised laws and/or regulations and additional guidance.
  • Services must be billed with a primary diagnosis of preventive, screening, counseling or wellness, if applicable, to qualify and other restrictions may apply.
  • Your benefits plan may contain additional preventive care benefits, exclusions and limitations. Check your plan documents for a complete description of benefits, exclusions, limitations and condition of coverage.
  • Grandfathered plans (a plan that hasn't changed since 2010) may have costs. See your plan documents to find your specific coverage and costs.
  • Talk to your healthcare provider about a proper schedule of check-up visits.

Preventive care vs. diagnostic care

Preventive care

Comprehensive evaluation to prevent health problems; you do not have symptoms or other abnormal studies suggesting abnormalities

Diagnostic care

Medical care to treat or diagnose a problem, to monitor existing problems, or follow up on abnormal test results.

Care Management

Get free assistance with chronic health and access to care.

Living with a health condition can be challenging. To make it a little easier, the Baylor Scott & White Quality Alliance Comprehensive Care Management team provides care management services to employees and dependents of Baylor Scott and White Health Plan.

Through care management, there is a multidisciplinary team available to support you in managing your health, assisting with navigation and coordination of care. Additionally, care managers work with members, families and providers to create plans to meet the ongoing complex care needs specific to each member. Care managers advocate for members, answer questions, provide education and assist members with setting goals.

A care manager may reach out to you if you have been identified as having a chronic health condition such as asthma, diabetes, COPD or a variety of other conditions that benefit from focused care. Care managers may communicate with your physician to facilitate conversations about your health concerns. At the core of care management is the goal to improve members’ health and quality of life in addition to getting the greatest value from their health plan.

Participation in care management is voluntary and offered at no cost to you. For more information, please email EmployeeCM@BSWHealth.org.

Baylor Scott and White Quality Alliance's Care Navigation team is available to connect you to a care manager, locate tier one providers within your benefit plan and assist with appointment coordination. Care Navigation can be reached at 844.279.7589.
