Depending upon the policy of the member, this could change their out-of-pocket costs for their medications. Members impacted by this change will be receiving letters in the coming weeks which will suggest that they can:

• Continue getting their prescription from the pharmacy you’re using now, and your share of the cost will increase.
• Or speak to their doctor about the possibility of changing to another medicine that will cost you less
