New Drug Formulary
November 14, 2019
The NYS WCB recently implemented a Prescription Drug Formulary, which lists the medications eligible for reimbursement under a claimant’s workers' comp medical coverage. Beginning December 5, 2019, all new prescriptions for injured workers must comply with the requirements of the Formulary. Beginning June 5, 2020, all refills and renewals must comply with the Formulary. We urge claimants to discuss their medications with their health care providers to determine if their medication is reimbursable under their workers’ comp medical coverage and make appropriate changes as necessary. For more information, visit the WCB Formulary website.

We've also added a new option to broker accounts, allowing reps to enroll to receive a notification when premium bills are issued to clients.
