Description:
This medication list applies to certain newly launched medications that are healthcare provider administered and have not been reviewed by the Medical Policy Committee (MPC), Care Continuum, or eviCore, and/or a utilization management strategy has not yet been put in place. The medications may be excluded from coverage while the medication is listed on this document or will be reviewed against available clinical evidence, which includes applicable Medical Benefit Drug Guideline (e.g., Care Continuum MedRx guidelines or eviCore Clinical Guidelines).
Instructions for Use:
This New-to-Market (NTM) Medication List provides the listing of medications that are excluded from the medical benefit until the date the medication is reviewed by WPS or are reviewed against available clinical evidence.
The New-to-Market Medication List applies to commercial (including fully insured and self-funded) and Exchange members. It does not apply to Medicare or Medicare Supplement members.
This list is supported by the New-to-Market Medications Medical Guideline.
When determining whether the New-to-Market applies to the individual member, the member specific benefit plan document must be referenced. The terms of the member specific benefit plan document [e.g., Certificate of Coverage (COC), Schedule of Benefits (SOB), and/or Summary Plan Description (SPD)] may differ greatly from the standard benefit plan upon which this Medical Benefit Drug Guideline is based. In the event of a conflict, the member specific benefit plan document supersedes the applicable Medical Benefit Drug Guideline and List. All reviewers must first identify member eligibility, any federal or state regulatory requirements, and the member specific benefit plan coverage prior to use of this Medical Benefit Drug Guideline.

professional medical judgment of a qualified health care provider. To obtain additional information about MCG, email
