get a lot cheaper. When drug companies develop a drug, the FDA usually grants them exclusive rights to market that drug for a set period of time. When those rights expire, other companies can make the exact same drug. Since there is competition, the generics are cheaper. <br> <br> Among major drugs on the list for patent expiration for the next year: <br> <br> <b>Lipitor</b>, a popular cholesterol drug, goes generic in November. <br> <b>Solodyn</b>, used to treat bacterial infections, November. <br> <b>Zyprexa</b>, which treats schizophrenia, October. <br> <b>Lexapro</b>, used to treat depression, March. <br> <b>Seroquel</b>, used to treat schizoprhenia, March. <br> <b>Provigil</b>, which treats sleep problems, April. <br> <b>Plavix</b>, an antiplatelet drug which can prevent blood clots, May. <br> <br> The NCMS Plan paid nearly <b>$1,000,000</b> for just these drugs in the last year alone. <br> <br> Drugs becoming available as generics can save employees a great deal of money. There's no clear indication how much cheaper the generic versions of the drugs will be, but for comparison the well-known depression drug Prozac became generic 10 years ago. Now it sells for less than $16 dollars for a one-month supply. <br> <br> Patients taking brand-name medications that won't go generic for years may also be able to save money. Patients should talk with their physicians about generic options that may be effective for them. <br> <br> Please share this information with your employees. <o:p></o:p> </span></p> <div class="style2" style='mso-element:para-border-div;border:none;border-bottom:solid #6CADDF 1.0pt; mso-border-bottom-alt:solid #6CADDF .5pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'> <p style='border:none;mso-border-bottom-alt:solid #6CADDF .5pt;padding:0in; mso-padding-alt:0in 0in 0in 0in'><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"; color:#636466'><a href="#top"><span style='color:#6CADDF;text-decoration: none;text-underline:none'>Back to Top </span><span style='font-family:"Cambria Math","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family:"Cambria Math";color:#6CADDF;text-decoration:none; text-underline:none'>'"</span></a> <o:p></o:p></span></p> </div> <h1 class="Heading1Char style18 style18 style18 style18">&nbsp;</h1> <h1 class="Heading1Char style18 style18 style18 style18"><span style="font-family:&quot;Helvetica&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;"><a name="ask"></a>Ask George <o:p></o:p> </span></h1> <p class="style2"><b><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#636466'>Question: George, does the NCMS Plan offer group dental benefits?</span></b><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#636466'> <br> <br> <span class="style13">Answer: Yes. The NCMS Plan does indeed offer group dental benefits, underwritten by MetLife, to participating practices. As with our health program, practices benefit from the size of the NCMS Plan with both competitive pricing and product design options. <br> <br> Practices can choose from four different products, three of which can be offered with or without child orthodontia benefits. Employees can seek treatment from any dentist. However, employees will save money by choosing a dentist from MetLife's Preferred Dental Program network. <br> <br> Practices can select one product or offer a dual option to employees. If offering a dual option, one product offered must be Plan A. <br> <br> New groups can have a dental benefit period that matches their health benefit period. For example, if your health benefits renew January 1, we can set up a dental benefit period that begins January 1 and runs to December 31. Practices do not have to be enrolled in the NCMS Plan health program to enroll in the NCMS Plan dental program. <br> <br> To enroll, practices must have a minimum of 75% of eligible employees electing the coverage and the practice must contribute 25% of the employee only premium.
