Does anyone know a list of asthma medication that NYS medicaid accepts?
I was taking (Symbicort) to control my asthma and my medicaid didn’t cover it. It covered my rescue inhaler and but not my control medication. Does anyone know where i can find a list that covers my asthma control medication?

Your doctor can tell you what medication is covered. The doctor should prescribe according to the insurance that you have!
This is the formulary that the New York State medicaid program will reimburse for:
