Pharmacy
Whether you need prescription drugs or over-the-counter (OTC) medication, Healthfirst makes it easy to get the medicine you need.

Getting Your Prescriptions
Staying on track with your medications can be hard. Healthfirst can help make it easier.
Refill Reminders
Whichever pharmacy you choose, ask if they can send you refill reminders. That way you’ll know when it’s time to pick up your next refill and always have enough medication available. It’s very important to continue to take your medications as directed by your doctor.
90-Day Prescriptions
Sometimes it could be challenging to refill and pick up your medications every month. Ninety-day prescriptions may be a good option for you. Instead of picking up your medication every month, you can pick it up every three months. That’s just four (4) times a year instead of 12. Ask your doctor about a 90-day prescription for your medications.

If your Healthfirst plan includes an over-the-counter (OTC) allowance, we’ll send you a pre-funded Healthfirst OTC card. For information on how to activate your OTC card, how your allowance works, what you can buy with it, and more, click below:
As a reminder, unlike prescription medications, most OTC drugs don’t require a doctor’s prescription and can be bought at a regular store, not just a pharmacy. Also, since you don’t need a prescription, remember that these items aren’t covered by your plan’s prescription drug benefit, but you may be able to get them with your OTC allowance.
