Preferred Drug List

Louisiana Healthcare Connections is committed to providing appropriate, high quality and cost effective drug therapy to all our members. Louisiana Healthcare Connections works with providers and pharmacists to ensure medications used to treat a variety of conditions and diseases are covered. Louisiana Healthcare Connections covers prescription medications and certain over-the-counter (OTC) medications when ordered by a Louisiana Medicaid enrolled, Louisiana Healthcare Connections practitioner. The pharmacy program does not cover all medications. Some medications require prior authorization (PA) or have limitations on age, dosage and maximum quantities.

The Louisiana Healthcare Connections Preferred Drug List (PDL) is the list of covered drugs. The PDL applies to the drugs members can receive at retail pharmacies. Our PDL is continually evaluated by the Louisiana Healthcare Connections Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee to promote the appropriate and cost-effective use of medications. The Committee is comprised of the Louisiana Healthcare Connections Medical Director, Louisiana Healthcare Connections Pharmacy Director and several Louisiana physicians, pharmacists, dentists and specialists.
