Options for Filling Your Prescription
With one of our Prescription Drug Plans, you will have access to more than 64,000** pharmacies nationwide. You also may choose to have your prescription filled and mailed directly to your home or office using our preferred mail service pharmacy. You may get your prescriptions filled at a non-preferred pharmacy; however, you may have to pay more for your prescriptions. With mail service, you will receive up to a 90-day supply of your medication for a co-payment that is likely to be significantly less than you would pay for three 34-day co-payments at a participating retail pharmacy.
WITH THE CAREMARK MAIL SERVICE PROGRAM YOU HAVE:
- The ease of having a prescription delivered to the location of your choice - home, office, vacation spot, etc.
- Greater convenience with mail service of up to a 90-day supply of medication - including free standard shipping.
- Personal service with a 24-hour, toll-free hot-line to speak with a registered pharmacist about any questions or concerns you may have.
- Excellent quality through confidential, tamper-resistant and temperature-controlled - packaging of prescriptions.
- Internet and refill-by-phone services to order your prescription refills 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The Caremark Mail Service offering also checks the availability of U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved, generic substitutions to fill prescriptions when authorized by physicians and permissible by law. By using generics, you may reduce your prescription drug costs and avoid the coverage gap for longer if you should reach it.
