\"...What is a ***three-tier benefit*** design?
***A three-tier benefit design is a prescription drug benefit with three different copay levels***, based on the medication purchased. This program promotes the use of a prescription drug formulary (which will also be referred to as a preferred medication list) to help keep prescription drug costs under control for all of us. Your three-tier benefit design works this way:
Tier 1: Generic drugs (the least expensive copay)
Tier 2: Formulary brand drugs (a more expensive copay)
Tier 3: Non-formulary brand drugs (the most expensive copay) ...\"
Una referencia en español:
\"Culinary Workers Health Fund... 1999. Este es el segundo aumento de co-pagos en 13 años. El Fondo está cambiando a una estructura de ***3 Niveles de co-pago por recetas***. ... \"

7 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +1 | a three-tier open formulary drug benefit (plan) de prestaciones para medicamentos de un recetario abierto con 3 niveles de copago
Explanation:
Estoy de acuerdo con Oso, "three-tier" se refiere a 3 niveles de copago. También estoy de acuerdo con el colega que traduciría "benefit" como prestaciones, aunque depende del cliente ya que muchas veces prefieren el uso de "beneficios".
Formulary es un recetario, en Argentina lo llamamos Vademecum.
Espero que resulte útil.
Buen domingo para todos.
