Pharmacy Information

Blue Cross MedicareRx (PDP) has contracts with pharmacies nationwide that equal or exceed the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services requirements for pharmacy access. To get benefits, you must use network pharmacies or our home delivery pharmacy service, except in emergencies.

Blue Cross MedicareRx also has a preferred network of pharmacies that you may use to get prescription drugs at a lower copay than at standard network pharmacies. 

Search the Pharmacy Finder tool to find the most up-to-date network of pharmacies. 

The Blue Cross MedicareRx pharmacy network has both preferred and standard pharmacies to choose from when you fill your prescription drugs. You may choose either type, but you will usually save money by paying a lower copay or coinsurance when you use a preferred pharmacy. Preferred network pharmacies include Walgreens, Kroger, Albertsons, Amigos, Market Street, Randalls, Tom Thumb, United Supermarkets, Health Mart Atlas independent pharmacies, and HEB. See list of preferred pharmacies by plan.

In addition to network pharmacies, you can use AllianceRx Walgreens Prime. It’s our home delivery pharmacy service that offers: 

• Three ways to order refills: online, by phone or through the mail.
• Up to a 90-day supply of medications at one time.
• Notifications when your order is received and when your prescriptions are sent (by email or over the phone, whichever you prefer).

Covered drugs are available at out-of-network pharmacies in emergencies or unusual circumstances and for non-routine access to covered Part D drugs (illness while traveling outside the plan’s service area where there is no network pharmacy, for example). For more information on these special circumstances for out-of-network coverage and/or what pharmacies may be available to you, please contact us.
