Get started with your pharmacy coverage

Switching to a 90-day supply of your prescriptions is an easy way to stay on track with your medications, especially if you have chronic health issues like diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. It can help you stick to your treatment plan and cut down on trips to the pharmacy.

You can choose the option that works best for you:

• Mail order: Get your medications delivered to your door for free with Amazon Pharmacy.
• Retail pharmacy: Check with your local pharmacy to see if they offer 90-day supplies of your medicine. This will vary by pharmacy.

Your pharmacy coverage includes benefits designed to help keep costs low. Generic medications have the same active ingredient as the brand name medications and usually cost less.

• Certain generic medications used to treat conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol are available to members at low or $0 copay when filled at an in-network pharmacy. Learn more about the Tier 6 (Select Care Drugs) (PDF).
• Ask your doctor or pharmacist if a generic alternative is available.

Set up medication reminders, prepare for refills, and avoid excess stock of medications.

• Use tools like alarms, pill boxes, or pharmacy reminders to take medications on schedule. Track when your prescriptions need refills and ask your doctor ahead of time, so you always have medication on hand.
• Avoid filling prescriptions too early to prevent overstock and confusion about your treatment plan. Check your prescription labels to ensure the medication and strength are current. To avoid waste, use your current stock of medications before requesting a refill.
