Your prescription plan does include a few requirements to ensure you receive the appropriate prescriptions safely and at the best cost.
Generic Medication
A penalty may be applied if your physician chooses for you to receive a brand-name drug when a generic is available. Generic medications should be considered the first-line approach in therapy.
Using Local Pharmacies
You can fill your first 30-day prescription at your local pharmacy. After this time, you must use Rx Plus for refills. Otherwise, you will be required to pay a 30-day copay for a 15-day supply.
Controlled Substances
Controlled substances and Schedule II (CII) medications can be filled at the local pharmacy for up to a 90-day supply and are not required to go through Rx Plus Pharmacy.
