Legend Drugs

Most legend drugs and many OTC drugs are covered.

As defined under Wis. Admin. Code § DHS 101.03(94), a legend drug is any drug that requires a prescription under federal code 21 USC 353(b). Legend drugs are covered when:

  • The drug is approved by the FDA and is not on the Wisconsin Medicaid Negative Formulary List.
  • The manufacturer has signed a federal rebate agreement for the drug.
  • The manufacturer has reported the drug information to First DataBank.

Some covered drugs may require PA; others require an appropriate diagnosis code or have other restrictions for reimbursement.
