You need a correlation clause. The subquery just checks whether or not the table is empty. Something like:

INSERT INTO ShouldImportMetricsIDsTable( [Formulary ID], [Market Segment] )
    SELECT im.[Formulary ID], im.[Market Segment]
    FROM ImportMetricsIDs01262015 as im
    WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
                      FROM ShouldImportMetricsIDsTable as sim
                      WHERE im.[Formulary ID] = sim.[Formulary ID] AND
                            im.[Market Segment] = sim.[Market Segment]
                     );
