Prescription Drug Coverage for Purdue Medical Plans
When you enroll in a Purdue medical plan, you have two options to receive prescription medications:
1) through a CVS Caremark participating retail pharmacy (30-day supply)
To find a list of CVS Caremark participating retail pharmacies, use the Pharmacy Locator.
2) through the CVS Caremark mail order program (90-day supply).
Additionally, Purdue partners with Rx Savings Solutions, which offers ways to save on prescription costs.

The Value Formulary is a useful information and resource tool.
With the mail order option, you can receive up to a 90-day supply of your medication conveniently delivered through the mail at a discounted price. The CVS Caremark discreet packages are tamper-proof, weather-proof and temperature controlled, so it’s a safe option for you.
Since your prescription will need to be delivered through the mail, you will need to allow time for your medication to arrive. If you have a new medication, you may need to ask your doctor to write two prescriptions — one for a 30-day supply that you can have filled right away at a retail pharmacy and one for a 90-day supply that you can send to the mail order program.
Send your prescription to the mail order pharmacy service with a completed Mail Order Form and your copayment. To know how much copayment to include, call the mail order service for an estimate. You can expect to receive your medication in 7 to 14 days from the date you mail your order. For an additional charge, you can choose next-day or second-day delivery. Refills are even easier. You can either call the toll-free number on your prescription label (866-234-7061) or log on to the CVS Caremark website.
To transfer current retail prescriptions to mail order, log on to the CVS Caremark website and choose the medication(s) you want to transfer. Confirm the prescribing provider information so that CVS Caremark can contact them to request a transfer to a 90-day mail order prescription. Once your provider approves, you can expect to receive your medication within 7 to 14 days. Be sure you have enough medication on hand before transferring to mail order.
CVS Caremark offers an option to make installment payments on prescriptions received via mail order. The program allows you to pay for your mail order prescriptions over 90 days. To enroll in the program, go to the CVS Caremark website or call 866-234-7061 for more information. Certain limits apply.
Visit the CVS Caremark website or the CVS Caremark mobile app for additional resources.
