The most recent (August 2014) Medicare Part D plan formulary data (or drug lists) updates include the addition of
87 new National Drug Codes (NDC) to the Medicare Part D program. The NDCs represent 58 different drugs, many with multiple strengths or delivery forms. This blog provides links to the formulary details for the 25 new generic equivalents that were added to one or more Medicare Part D formularies.
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.
The following 25 manufacturer / drug / strength / packaging combinations (NDCs) were added to one or more Medicare Part D formularies in the most recent updates.
