2023-2024 Benefits Guide
MEDICAL PLAN FEATURES Preferred Pharmacy Network
A Preferred Pharmacy Network is included in your prescription drug benefit plan. When you fill a prescription for up to a 30-day supply of a covered prescription drug from a retail pharmacy that contracts to participate in the Preferred Pharmacy Network, you may pay the lowest copay/coinsurance amount. If you fill a prescription at a non- preferred, in-network pharmacy, you may pay a higher copay or coinsurance. You can also fill a prescription for up to a 90-day supply of a covered prescription drug at a retail pharmacy that participates in the Preferred Pharmacy Network. To find a preferred pharmacy, sign in to myprime.com. Please note that changes may be made to the participating pharmacies in the future BCBS Top Preferred Pharmacies are: HEB, Walmart, Walgreens and Sam’s Club. IMPORTANT: CVS is out of the BCBS network . If you currently fill your prescriptions at CVS, you’ll still have access to more than 55,000 in-network pharmacies nationwide (without CVS). To find a new in-network pharmacy visit myprime.com and select “Find a Pharmacy” or call the Pharmacy Program number on the back of your member ID card.
