Preferred pharmacies can help members save money
Members can save money when they fill prescriptions at one of over 18,500 preferred pharmacy locations nationwide.
This month, many members are receiving a letter illustrating how much they could save at a preferred pharmacy. The letter will be sent to those who have a preferred pharmacy benefit that used a standard pharmacy (non-preferred) pharmacy to fill certain prescriptions in January. The letter outlines:
- How much money the member can save in 2019, by using a preferred pharmacy for the drugs they’ve already filled.
- Up to three preferred pharmacies near the member’s residence.
- How to take advantage of preferred prices through mail order delivery
Here’s an excerpt from the letter. The highlighted items will be customized for each member.
