Benefits Information

Prescription Drug Program

The Prescription Drug Program helps defray the cost of drugs prescribed for you and your eligible dependents for use outside of hospitals, nursing homes, or other institutions. Covered are those drugs which, as required by Federal Law, can be dispensed only upon a written prescription order by a doctor.

The only cost to the employee is a copayment for each prescription dispensed at a pharmacy. Employees and covered dependents who are taking prescription medication on an ongoing basis may use the prescription drug mail order program. This program provides medication by mail for a maximum of 90 day supply with copayment. Information on how this program works is available through the Office of Human Resources.

The employee and eligible dependents are covered at no cost to the employee. Upon resignation, termination, or retirement, coverage extends in accordance with the NJ State Health Benefits termination timetable.
