Prescription Program

Change to CVS Caremark

The 1199SEIU Benefit Funds has changed pharmacy benefit managers from Express Scripts to CVS Caremark effective July 1, 2024.

Your 1199SEIU patients have few or no out-of-pocket costs as long as they use the Fund’s prescription programs. Help your patients by prescribing only generic and preferred brand-name drugs on the Fund's Preferred Drug List.

For long-term medications, members must use The 90-Day Rx Solution. Make sure to write the prescription for a three-month supply with three refills (a year’s supply in total). Then your 1199SEIU patient can fill it through CVS Caremark Mail Service Pharmacy, or order and pick up the prescription at any CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens or Duane Reade Pharmacy nationwide. For short-term prescriptions, members can use any participating pharmacy.
