Specialty Pharmacy
Complex medications must come from a specialty pharmacy. How to get your medication.
The Specialty Pharmacy Program is for members who require specialty medications that are usually self-injected and used to treat complex or rare conditions.

- Patient education
- Working with you to assure you are taking your medications correctly and being compliant with the drug therapy
