What is Medication Dedication?
It’s a new medication adherence program from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (BCBSNC) designed to help employees with specific chronic conditions take their medications as prescribed by their health care provider. Since cost can be a significant barrier to taking medications as directed, BCBSNC is waiving the copayment for generic medications that treat the following conditions: congestive heart failure, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. BCBSNC is also moving certain brand-name drugs that treat those same conditions to a lower drug level tier to make them more affordable.
