Change in PDL Status for Antivirals, Oral Drug Class

Date: March 22, 2024

Attention: All Providers

Effective date: March 7, 2024

Call to action: Texas Children’s Health Plan (TCHP) would like to let providers know that effective March 7, 2024, valganciclovir tablet will now be preferred along with brand Valcyte. This is in response to the shortage of the brand product Valcyte by the manufacturer.

How this impacts providers: The change will allow providers to prescribe the generic without requiring preferred drug list (PDL) prior authorization at this time and continue accessing necessary medication for their patients.

Next step for Providers: Prescribers are encouraged to proactively obtain a prescription for the preferred alternatives to avoid disruption in patient’s therapy. Prescribers should share this communication with their staff.

If you have any questions, please email TCHP Pharmacy at: tchppharmacy@texaschildrens.org.
