ON SCREEN TEXT: UNITEDHEALTHCARE PHARMACY Generic or Brand Status Drug Cost Drug & Clinic Effectiveness Medical Cost Productivity Impact
WOMAN: While other pharmacy benefit managers may decide a drug's value based on generic or brand status or on drug cost alone, UnitedHealthcare Pharmacy looks even further: the clinical effectiveness relative to other drugs, any associated medical costs, and even impact on workdays missed.
A chart features headings with lists of drug classes. The headings turn from blue to orange.
ON SCREEN TEXT: Diabetes/Endocrine Blood Glucose Monitoring Diabetes/Endocrine Insulin Diabetes/Endocrine Non-Insulin Respiratory Asthma/COPD
WOMAN: For example, some drug classes used to treat important diseases, such as asthma and diabetes, have very few to no generics. In order to provide coverage to our members for the most affordable prescriptions and encourage compliance, we place several of these brand-name drugs in tier 1, which offers lowest cost and highest value options to members.

ON SCREEN TEXT: $38 Exclusion savings per employee every year.
WOMAN: We're there to help keep members informed and engaged in their pharmacy benefit at every turn:
