2025 WellSense Clarity plan drug costs
Understanding drug tiers for your planWhen searching for a drug, pay attention to the drug tier listed next to it to find your copay cost. If no tier is listed, there may be a restriction on that particular drug, and you may need to try another medication first. In some cases, your doctor needs to ask us for approval to prescribe you a medication before we can cover it. Find your plan type below to see the cost for each drug tier. "SG" plan members should choose the metallic name (Silver, Gold, etc.) that matches their plan.
You can also view your prescription costs in the Prescription Drug section of the Schedule of Benefits.

Members may be exempt from paying a copay for the following reasons:
- The member is receiving family planning supplies and/or family planning services
- The member has met the annual out-of-pocket maximum when applicable
Each member has an out-of-pocket maximum based on the member's plan type. Once the annual out-of-pocket maximum is reached, you will no longer be required to contribute towards the cost of your prescriptions. You can find your yearly out-of-pocket maximum in your Schedule of Benefits. You can log in to the member portal to find the cost of a specific drug.
Glossary
Generic drugs: You will pay the lowest copay for generic drugs. Generics are equivalent to their brand-name counterparts, and are ensured by the Food and Drug Administration to be as safe and effective.
Preferred brand drugs: These are drugs covered by your pharmacy benefit when generic equivalents are not available.
Non-preferred brand drugs: These are brand-name drugs that are not covered under your pharmacy benefit but may be covered if they are a part of your medical benefit, another preferred drug is tried first, or prior approval is obtained
