  • Covered Drugs

    You get prescription drugs at little to no cost to you. We cover your medically necessary medicines when filled at a network pharmacy. We also cover some over-the-counter (OTC) medicines with a prescription from your provider.

    Generic drugs are drugs that have the same dosage, safety, strength and intended use as a brand-name drug. They usually cost less than brand-name drugs.

    We cover all drugs covered by Iowa Medicaid. Iowa Medicaid uses a Preferred Drug List (PDL). Our PDL includes both generic and brand-name drugs. It also gives you facts about a drug and lists any restrictions on them. To fill your prescriptions, you must use a network pharmacy. Be sure to take your member ID card with you. Be sure to fill your prescriptions before you travel out of state.

    To find a network pharmacy, see our Provider Directory You can also call Member Services.

      • Quantity limits –limits the amount of the drug you can fill or refill at a given time or interval.
      • Step therapy – requires that you try a certain drug, such as a generic, before your provider can prescribe another drug.
      • Prior authorization – means your provider must get approval from Molina before prescribing a drug.

    Our PDL can change. Check the PDL when you need to fill or refill a medicine.
