  • PIP Hypertension Worksheet (PIP_11H): ACN level report. Reflects blood pressure dates and result values, if applicable. Includes Type II NPI, PRA Group, PRA Subgroup.

 ACNs will receive the first of these weekly reports in early December, and reports will continue to be sent through January 2026.



Steqeyma and Starjemza Added to Coverage

With the growing use of Stelara® biosimilars, we’re expanding coverage to include additional options for our commercial group and individual members to ensure they have access to needed treatment. 

Effective immediately, Steqeyma® and Starjemza™ are covered under the pharmacy benefit at Tier 4 with prior authorization requirements and under the medical drug benefit, with prior authorization and site of service requirements. 

In addition to Steqeyma and Starjemza, we offer the same coverage for Selarsdi® and Yesintek®, all of which are biosimilars of Stelara and have been granted interchangeable status* by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). *Rules for interchangeable status vary by state. If your patient is filling their prescription at a pharmacy outside of Michigan, a new prescription for any of the above biosimilars may be required. 

What do they treat?

Steqeyma and Starjemza are interchangeable Stelara biosimilars used to treat a variety of autoimmune conditions, including certain types of plaque psoriasis, active psoriatic arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis.
