Absolute Total Care covers certain prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs when prescribed by an Absolute Total Care provider. The pharmacy program does not cover all drugs. Some require prior authorization. Some drugs have limitations on age, dosage or maximum quantities.
The CDL is the list of drugs covered by Absolute Total Care. Absolute Total Care works with providers and pharmacists to ensure that medications used to treat a variety of conditions and diseases are covered. The CDL applies to drugs you receive at retail pharmacies. The Absolute Total Care CDL is continually evaluated by the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee to promote the appropriate and cost-effective use of medications.
