For the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, The Lewin Group compared the formulary status of drugs commonly used by the Medicare population on the Veterans Affairs National Formulary (VA formulary), the two highest enrollment Medicare Part D plans, and the plan with highest enrollment in the Federal Employee Health Benefit Program (FEHBP). Lewin first completed this analysis in January 2007 using the 2007 versions of the VA formulary, Medicare Part D formularies, and FEHBP formulary. This report provides an update to the 2007 analysis.
