Dear Peach State Provider:

Peach State Health Plan is making some important changes to our Preferred Drug List, beginning June 14, 2010.  The changes that will be made are described below:

1. Drugs used for the symptomatic relief of cough and colds will only be covered for members under age 21.  

If you, as a physician, feel that a patient will require medication therapy outside of the above guidelines, you can submit a prior authorization request to US Script, the pharmacy benefit manager for Peach State Health Plan. The Medication Prior Authorization Request Form is available on the Peach State website in the Provider Forms section. This form can be faxed to US Script at 1-866-399-0929.

Thank you,

Wendy D. Bailey, RPh.                 Robyn A. Lorys, Pharm. D.
