Understanding your Patients' Coverage




Pharmacy Overview

Unity’s pharmacy programs are managed by the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics Center for Drug Policy (CDP). The CDP is a nationally recognized leader in developing, implementing and studying drug use policy for a wide variety of health care settings.

Our pharmacy program philosophy is built on the following key points:

Focus on Value
We strive to focus on the overall value of a medication rather than simply the cost.

Collaboration
Our formulary development process emphasizes collaboration with local practitioners and thought leaders.

Local
Our formulary is developed specifically for Unity's member needs and is based on local medical practice patterns.

Integration
We strive for continuity and integration in drug policy throughout the UW Health System.

NCQA
The pharmacy program is managed in accordance with NCQA standards which represent "best practices" for pharmacy benefit management.
