What we're doing to keep medication costs down
The high expense and use of medications is one of the main contributing factors to rising healthcare costs.
Here are some ways we're working hard to reduce medication costs:
- Four-level pharmacy benefit - Places prescription medications into cost categories or levels, giving you the medication you need at the best price
- Generics program - Save money with generic drugs
- Prior Authorization program - Works with your doctor to help limit excessively long courses of treatment or high quantities of certain medications
- Through retail pharmacy contracting, we create a broad retail pharmacy network at a competitive contracted rate so that we can offer better medication costs to you at several convenient locations
- With our doctor-based pharmacy management program, we work closely with medical and provider groups to make it easier for you to get the highest value in your prescription medications
