Question/Topic
Will a drug be covered under the same tier for the entire year under UMP?
Answer/Article

Not necessarily. The UMP Preferred Drug List (UMP PDL) may be updated at any time. Changes are posted online weekly. Check the tier level of your drug before filling your prescription, especially for a new prescription drug. You may also call Washington State Rx Services at 1-888-361-1611 to ask the tier level of a drug.
