Save Money on Prescriptions

Whether you take medications regularly or for an occasional illness, it pays to know how your prescription drug plan works. Here are some tips to help you save on prescriptions.

1. Choose medications covered by your plan
   A formulary is the list of drugs that are covered by your health plan. Formularies typically have different levels of coverage, also known as tiers, for prescription drugs. The drugs on the formulary are chosen based on how well they work, how safe they are, and how much they cost.

2. Price Edge
   With Price Edge, you automatically get the lowest available price on covered and non-covered generic medications. You may even save money on over-the-counter (OTC) medications, like ibuprofen or acid reducers, if you have a prescription. Plus, covered prescriptions count toward your yearly out-of-pocket limit or deductible (medications not covered by your plan, including OTC products, do not count toward your yearly out-of-pocket limit or deductible).
   
   If your next fill qualifies, you will automatically receive a discount. If your plan does not cover the medication, Price Edge may offer a lower price at the pharmacy counter.
   
   
3. 90-day refills
   Save time, effort, and money! You may be able to get up to a 90-day supply of select maintenance medications (taken regularly and long term), and you could save up to 17%.
