Specialty medications under your prescription drug card benefit
Members who use certain covered specialty drugs may purchase them through the specialty pharmacy
network. You may obtain a list of specialty drugs available through the specialty pharmacy by
contacting Member Services or online at www.anthem.com. These specialty drugs will be covered only
when obtained through this network. Specialty drugs are high-cost, injected, infused, oral or inhaled
medications (including therapeutic biological products) that are used to treat chronic or complex
illnesses or conditions. Specialty drugs may have special handling, storage and shipping requirements,
such as temperature control. Specialty drugs may require nursing services or special programs to
encourage patient compliance. The specialty pharmacy will fill both retail and mail order prescriptions,
although the ability to provide a 90-day supply of a specialty drug may be limited by the storage
requirements of that particular drug.
The specialty pharmacy provides dedicated patient care coordinators to help you manage your
condition and toll-free twenty-four hour access to nurses and registered pharmacists to answer
questions regarding your medications. You or your doctor can order your specialty medication direct
from the specialty pharmacy by simply calling 1-800-870-6419. You will be assigned a patient care
coordinator who will work with you and your physician to obtain prior authorization and to
coordinate the shipping of your medication directly to you or your physician’s office. Your patient care
coordinator will also contact you directly when it is time to refill your prescription.
