Your Rx Benefit Summary

Under your Maintenance Choice Plan, prescriptions for long-term medications (used to treat conditions like diabetes, asthma, or high blood pressure) must be filled in 90-day supplies at CVS Pharmacy or by mail.

Explain Summary After two fills if you fill these prescriptions in 30-day supplies or at any other pharmacy, your medications won't be covered and you'll have to pay the entire cost.

Specialty medications must be filled at CVS Specialty pharmacy from the initial fill. Prescriptions for short-term medications (like antibiotics) can be filled at any retail pharmacy in network.
