ications – letters and web messaging – that inform members about their proximity to the coverage gap, and educate members about how to use Medco Pharmacy and generics to help delay reaching the coverage gap and lower their overall annual prescription costs.
  • Medco pharmacists who are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and can discuss your mediations with you in the privacy of your own home.
  • Access to Medco Specialist Pharmacists who are specially trained in their practice of treating specific chronic conditions that are most common among people using the Medicare Part D benefit, and are therefore better equipped to identify a potential safety issue and counsel patients on how to stay healthy.

    • Enrollment for the 2011 plan year begins Nov. 15, 2010 with coverage beginning on Jan. 1, 2011.  Those interested in learning more about the Medco Medicare Prescription Plan options can visit http://www.medcomedicare.com/, or call toll-free 1-800-758-3605.
