Category: Monthly Formulary changes
Published: May, 29 2014 05:05:10

Next >
The most recent (May 2014) Medicare Part D plan formulary data (or drug lists) updates include the addition of 285 new National Drug Codes (NDC) to the Medicare Part D program.  These represent 170 different drugs, many with multiple strengths or delivery forms. The summary below is reflective of all 285 NDCs, However, since there are so many new NDCs we need to break the NDC details chart into two parts.  Go to the Part 1 blog for the details of the drug in the first 142 new NDCs. This blog details the remaining 143 NDCs.

The NDC uniquely identifies a particular drug, manufacturer, strength, and packaging combination. The NDC is often shown on your prescription bottle as an 11-digit code (see the charts below) or could be formatted as 00000-0000-00 where the first set of numbers identifies the manufacturer, the second set of number identifies the product and strength, and the third set of numbers identifies the packaging.

There are many reasons for NDCs to be added to the Medicare Part D program, a summary is a follows:

Reason for NDC Addition Occurrences
New Delivery Form 1
New Delivery Form and Strength 7
New Drug 61
New Drug and Strength 116
New Manufacturer 5
New Manufacturer and Delivery Form 3
New Manufacturer and Delivery Form and Strength 6
New Manufacturer and Strength 35
New Strength 51
Total New NDCs 285



The following 143 manufacturer / drug / strength / packaging combinations (NDCs) were added to one or more Medicare Part D formularies in the most recent updates. You can click on the Drug Name below to go to our Q1Medicare.com DrugFinder to see the details of how this drug is handled by all Medicare Part D Plans in Florida -- You can then change the state to your state for details in your service area. Go to the Part 1 blog for links to the drug in the first 142 new NDCs.
