We call the pharmacies on this list our “network pharmacies” because we have made
arrangements with them to provide prescription drugs to Plan members. A network pharmacy
is a pharmacy where beneficiaries obtain prescription drug benefits provided by Medicare Blue
or Medicare Blue Plus. In most cases, your prescriptions are covered under Medicare Blue or
Medicare Blue Plus only if they are filled at a network pharmacy or through our mail-order
pharmacy service. Once you go to one, you are not required to continue going to the same
pharmacy to fill your prescription. You can go to any of our network pharmacies. We will fill
prescriptions at non-network pharmacies under certain circumstances as described in your
Evidence of Coverage.
Preferred pharmacies are pharmacies in our network in which our Plan has negotiated lower costsharing
for its plan members for covered prescription drugs than at non-preferred pharmacies.
However, you will still have access to lower drug prices at non-preferred pharmacies than at outof-network
pharmacies. You may go to either of these types of network pharmacies to receive
your covered prescription drugs. Other than a higher cost share, there are no additional restrictions
imposed on a member who uses a non-preferred pharmacy.
All pharmacies listed in this directory support e-prescribing and offer extended supply of
medications.
The pharmacies in this directory are grouped by type (chain, retail, mail order, home infusion,
long-term-care facility, and Indian Health Service/Tribal/Urban Indian Health Program), then by
county. The counties are listed alphabetically under each pharmacy type and the pharmacies are
listed alphabetically under each county, with their addresses and telephone numbers.
