*In the High Deductible Plan with HSA, you must meet your combined medical/prescription drug deductible before the Program will pay benefits, except for certain preventive drugs.

**The use of generic prescription drug equivalents whenever possible (through both the retail and CVS Caremark Mail Service programs) is more cost-effective. Ask your medical professional about this distinction. If you or your doctor requests a brand-name drug and a generic alternative is available, you will pay the difference between the cost of the brand-name drug and the generic drug in addition to the copay for the generic drug.

***Citi does not determine preferred brand-name drugs. Rather, CVS Caremark brings together an independent group of practicing physicians and pharmacists who meet quarterly to review the preferred brand-name formulary list and make determinations based on current clinical information. Call CVS Caremark Customer Care at 1 (844) 214-6601 or visit www.caremark.com for a copy of its Preferred Formulary (updated at least quarterly). Note: Preferred brand-name prescription drugs count toward the out-of-pocket maximum.

PrudentRx

In the Choice Plan and In-network Only Plan, you can take advantage of coupons that are available through PrudentRx for certain specialty medications. With these coupons, your medication will be free. If you don’t use the PrudentRx program, you’ll pay 30% coinsurance. PrudentRx will contact you if your medication is eligible, or you can call PrudentRx at 1 (800) 578-4403 for more information.

CVS Caremark offers three ways to purchase prescription drugs:

Pickup at a CVS Pharmacy

You can pick up your short-term prescriptions or a 90-day supply at CVS retail stores, including those within a Target retail store. If you choose to pick up your prescription at a CVS Pharmacy or retail store, it will not cost more than using the CVS Caremark Mail Service or Maintenance Choice program. Note: If you go to an out-of-network pharmacy, you will pay the full cost yourself, and then you can file a claim to be reimbursed at the contracted rate, after you meet your deductible and pay the applicable copay.

Maintenance Choice Program

You may save money by having your maintenance and preventive drugs (up to a 90-day supply, plus refills if appropriate) either delivered by mail or picked up at a CVS pharmacy store through the CVS Caremark Maintenance Choice® program.

Start filling your 90-day prescriptions through CVS Caremark:

  1. By phone – Call CVS Caremark Customer Care at 1 (844) 214-6601.
  2. By mail – Fill out and return a Mail Service order form. You can download one from CVS Caremark, or request one from CVS Caremark Customer Care.
  3. Online – Visit www.caremark.com and log in. You may then request a new Mail Service prescription from your doctor using “Request a Prescription with Fast Start.” You may also order and track your refills via the CVS Caremark mobile app.
Specialty Pharmacy

The CVS Caremark Specialty Pharmacy dispenses oral and injectable specialty medications for the treatment of complex chronic diseases, including, but not limited to, multiple sclerosis, hemophilia, cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. Specialty medications purchased through the CVS Specialty Pharmacy are limited to a 31-day supply or less. It's important to know that prescriptions for specialty medications take longer to fill than traditional medications due to added steps and approvals.

You must use the CVS Specialty Pharmacy to fill specialty drug prescriptions, with the exception of HIV and transplant drugs, which can be filled at a retail pharmacy. Once you are using the program, the CVS Specialty Pharmacy will call your physician to obtain a prescription and then call you to schedule delivery.

In the Choice Plan and In-network Only Plan, members filling certain specialty medications are eligible for the PrudentRx program (offered through CVS Caremark). PrudentRx will assist you in enrolling in manufacturer assistances available to you. The good news is, these medications will be free to you if you remain enrolled in the program; otherwise, you'll pay 30% coinsurance. Because certain specialty medications do not qualify as "essential health benefits" under the Affordable Care Act, member cost share payments for these medications, whether made by you or a manufacturer copayment assistance, do not count toward the Plan's out-of-pocket maximums. You will be contacted by PrudentRx if you are eligible.

Location Options for Drug Infusions

If you’re enrolled in a Citi medical coverage and you receive certain specialty drugs at an outpatient hospital facility, you may receive a letter from Citi about utilizing a different site of care for infusions. This would include receiving infusions for those drugs in an office setting, an infusion center or in the comfort of your own home.
