Generic Plus Choice Program
If you purchase a brand name medication when a generic is available, you will pay the difference in price between the generic and brand drug, in addition to the generic co-pay (see example below). This provision applies regardless of whether your prescription is written for a brand name drug and designated "dispense as written".
