MedcoHealth administers the prescription drug benefits for the PPO1 and PPO2 plans.   Medco is a leading pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) helping customers to moderate the cost and enhance the quality of their prescription drug benefits. With almost 60,000 retail pharmacies in Medco's network, comprehensive prescription service is close at hand anywhere in the nation. Plus, industry-leading mail order pharmacies provide a reliable, convenient alternative, which may be less expensive for obtaining your long-term medications.  J.D. Power and Associates, an independent research organization, ranked Medco highest in overall customer satisfaction (pharmacy benefits and services) an unprecedented four times in a row.

You will receive a separate I.D. card for these benefits.  It is important that you present this I.D. card at the retail pharmacy when getting your prescriptions filled.  If you take medications on a regular basis, the mail-order benefit could save you a significant amount of money.  Under this program, you can typically receive up to 90-days of medication each time your prescription is filled. 

The prescription drug program has an annual deductible of $50 per individual.  After the individual meets the deductible the plan offers a copay for generic drugs and coinsurance for brand name drugs.   At the retail pharmacy, you can get up-to a 34-day supply of medications with each refill.  After you have your prescription filled 3-times, the amount you are responsible for increases.  Therefore, if you have a prescription that you need to have filled more than three times, you may want to consider using the mail order drug option.   This option typically provides a 90-day supply for a single copay and usually can provide cost savings to you.   Please see the Rx benefit summary link on the left for more details.
