ADDITIONAL DEMONSTRATION
DRUG FILE RECORD LAYOUT
Required File Format = ASCII File - Tab Delimited
Do not include a header record.
Filename extension is “.TXT”
The additional demonstration drug (ADD) file must be submitted during the submission window
for the Part D supplemental files. This will be a comprehensive file that includes all non-Part D
products (whether prescription or over-the-counter (OTC)) that a Part D sponsor intends to cover
consistent with Part D rules (e.g. drugs that fall under Part D excluded drug categories) or that a
State requires to be covered under its Medicaid program. Therefore, this file will include drugs
that could otherwise be submitted on the supplemental excluded drug and/or supplemental OTC
files for non-demonstration applicants.
Please note that consistent with the Part D supplemental file submissions, there must be a
one-to-one relationship between additional demonstration drug and formulary files. This
means that only one formulary may be associated with each submitted ADD file.
