 Welcome to

CVS Caremark®

Minnesota Management and Budget (MMB) is excited to announce that CVS Caremark will manage the prescription benefit for SEGIP members, beginning January 1, 2018. This change will provide members with new convenience and savings options to ensure you are getting the most from your benefits and not spending more than you need to. MMB is working closely with CVS Caremark through the next five months to ensure a smooth transition of service for SEGIP members.

Highlights of the  new  prescription drug benefit plan  include:

No changes to benefit design. The current three- tiered copayment structure will stay the same in 2018.*

Thousands of retail pharmacies will remain in- network. Including major chains and independent pharmacies.

CVS Caremark Mail Service Pharmacy. You will be able to have your long-term maintenance medicines (such as high blood pressure or diabetes) delivered safely to your home, office or other location in convenient 90-day refills.

90-day prescription options. CVS Caremark also offers a new opportunity to save on the maintenance medication(s) you take regularly. Aside from mail service, members will also have the option to obtain your long-term medication(s) at your local CVS Pharmacy® (including CVS Pharmacy inside Target stores) by paying the same mail service copay.

CVS Specialty®. If you have a complex or chronic condition (such as rheumatoid arthritis or multiple sclerosis), CVS Specialty offers more than just medication. You will have a dedicated CareTeam led by a pharmacist and nurse who are specialists in your condition. They can help with everything from getting started and managing side effects to injection training and finding financial assistance. This support can help you safely and effectively stay on track with your therapy. In addition, CVS Specialty lets you choose how you get your medication: you can pick it up at any CVS Pharmacy (including those inside Target stores) OR have it delivered by mail anywhere that’s convenient for you—even your doctor’s office.**

Digital solution tools. Caremark.com and the no-cost CVS Caremark mobile app are everything you need to manage time and costs. Customize notifications and reminders,  early refills, mail service pharmacy set- up, track your Rx spend, and check drug coverage and costs are all available to help you and your family manage time and money.

SEGIP and CVS Caremark will share more information with you before and during Open Enrollment later this year. In the meantime, call SEGIP with questions at 1-651-355-0100.

*Copayment and copay means the amount a member is required to pay for a prescription in accordance with a Plan, which may be a deductible, a percentage of the prescription price, a fixed amount or other charge, with the balance, if any, paid by a Plan.

**Where allowed by law. In-store pick up is currently not available in Oklahoma. Some states require first-fill prescriptions to be transmitted directly to the dispensing specialty pharmacy. Products are dispensed by CVS Specialty and certain services are only accessed by calling CVS Specialty directly. Certain specialty medication may not qualify.
