Chronic condition medicine baskets
Transmed applies chronic medicine baskets or formularies, which are lists of medicines that consist of generic and original medicines, which will be reimbursed by the Fund subject to clinical protocols. The medicines on a formulary make up a 'preferred' list, while the medicines that may attract co-payments are referred to as 'non-preferred' medicines.
