CVS/caremark offers you a way to save money on your long-term medicines with 90-day supplies. Now you can choose to fill your prescriptions at any CVS/pharmacy or with CVS Caremark Mail Service Pharmacy, for the same low price. All you have to do is opt for a 90-day supply. Either way, you’ll save.

To save with Mail Service you can enroll easily online or by phone:

• Visit www.caremark.com/mailservice and sign in or register to request a new prescription.
• Call us toll-free at 1-800-875-0867. We’ll handle the rest by reaching out to your provider and coordinating a new 90 day prescription

CVS/caremark can contact your doctor for a new prescription for most common maintenance medications that are taken for chronic conditions or for long-term therapy. Examples include medications for managing high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and other chronic medical conditions. However, in compliance with pharmacy law and to ensure appropriate drug therapy, some medications, such as controlled substances and specialty drugs, are not included in the program. Please contact your doctor directly for a new prescription for a controlled substance.  You should receive your medicine within 10 days from the day you submit the request.

Or you can just pick up your 90 day supply yourself at a local CVS Pharmacy:

• Ask your doctor for a 90-day prescription. Then have your doctor send it to the CVS/pharmacy of your choice.
• To find a pharmacy location near you, sign in at www.caremark.com and visit Find a Pharmacy. You can find it in the Order Prescriptions section.
• Call or visit your local CVS/pharmacy to talk to a pharmacist.

What is the benefit in doing this? – It’s all in the savings!
Here are some examples:  Under our CDHP – three months on the anti diabetic Metformin HCL would cost you $225 ($75 per month for 3 months).  However a mail order version of the same would be $150.
