Prescription Plan
When you enroll in one of the medical plan options, you are automatically provided with prescription drug coverage through CVS Caremark. You have access to prescription medications through both retail pharmacies and mail-order program. The CVS mobile app and digital tools make sit easy to manage your prescriptions on your own time.
Prescription coverage for the GW Health Savings Plan and GW PPO Plan have differences, so be sure to consider your prescription drug needs with medical needs.
Benefits Tip: You will receive two separate ID cards for medical (UHC) and prescription (CVS Caremark) if you elect one of GW’s medical plans.
Under the Maintenance Choice program, the number of 30- day fills for maintenance prescriptions at a retail pharmacy (including CVS) is limited to three. After their third 30-day fill members will be prompted to either move their prescription to CVS or contact customer care to opt out and continue filling at their local pharmacy. Through this program, participants gain access to delivery offerings:
• On-Demand Delivery – Four-hour delivery offered within 10 miles of any CVS Pharmacy store, for a small fee.
• One- to Two-Day Delivery – Delivery provided by USPS within 1-2 days, at no extra cost to the member.
