Prescription Drug Program FAQs
What is a drug list?
A Drug List/Formulary contains drugs and supplies approved for use with your HMO Blue Texas benefit plan. You are more likely to receive the maximum plan benefits and cost savings for drugs that are on your drug list/formulary.
Why should I use PrimeMail to fill my prescriptions?
PrimeMail offers you convenient prescription delivery to your home or office with
refill amounts and dates noted on your prescription label.
How long does it take for my PrimeMail prescription order to arrive?
Prescriptions ordered through the mail will arrive via U.S. Mail in 10 to 14 days. You will receive your prescriptions faster if you order them through the Internet or by phone, because front-end mail time is eliminated.
What if I want to order from PrimeMail, but I need my medication right away?
Ask your physician for two prescriptions - one for a 30-day supply to fill immediately at a local retail pharmacy and one for up to the maximum-day supply allowed by your plan to fill at PrimeMail pharmacy.
How can I pay for my prescriptions?
You may pay using a personal check, money order or credit card (Master Card, Visa,
American Express or Discover). Paying with a credit card is the most convenient method for members, as PrimeMail can retain the information on file for future prescription orders.
