With your Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois prescription drug plan, you save money if you use a pharmacy in the network.
Some plans may also include a preferred pharmacy network.* When you choose a preferred pharmacy, you may save the most money when you fill your covered prescriptions at these locations. You can also fill up to a 90-day supply of many covered drugs in the store or through home delivery.
Whether you are at home, the office or on the go, you can find your preferred pharmacy network locations on MyPrime.com.
After signing into MyPrime.com, your pharmacy network will automatically appear. If your plan includes preferred pharmacies, you can filter by “Preferred pharmacies” in your search results.
You can also search without logging in.

Remember, not all pharmacies are in your health plan’s pharmacy network. Please note changes to the pharmacies may be made in the future.
Before you choose the closest one to you, find out if it is in your network. If it isn’t, you may want to go a little further to get your prescriptions filled. Your out-of-pocket costs are highest when you choose an out-of-network pharmacy.
In fact, some plans don’t provide out-of-network pharmacy benefits. You may end up paying the full cost for your prescriptions.
Check your benefits to see if you have a preferred pharmacy network. You can also call the Customer Service number listed on your Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois member ID card.

Since you dumped Target/CVS I have had the most painful experiences with Walgreens. I am on Effient and Aptiom. While Target always had them in stock and had my savings card information on file, Walgreens never has either medication in stock and always screws up my savings card information. It takes them days to get these medications so we need to call well ahead of time for them to fill the orders. It is difficult to manage this as we only get the savings when the prescription is due so we play the timing game and hope things work out every time we go in to pick up my medications. On top of that they never have my savings card information and they have to manually enter it every time we go in so that takes even more time. Walgreens is ridiculous. I wish you would reconsider adding Target/CVS back into the network. Much easier to work with and never had these problems.
