Pharmacy Information

Blue Cross Medicare Advantage has contracts with pharmacies nationwide that equal or exceeds 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.

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

 

Preferred Network Pharmacies

The Blue Cross Medicare Advantage 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 Albertsons, Safeway, Smith’s, Walgreens, Walmart, and other independent pharmacies. Check the pharmacy directory for a full list of preferred pharmacies.

 

Home Delivery

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).

Contact AllianceRx Walgreens Prime at 1-877-277-7895 TTY 711.
