Benefits Management

The Pacific Health Coalition provides member health plans with pharmacy benefit management (PBM) services through a large purchasing coalition, National CooperativeRx. The agreement gives member plans volume discounts and significant savings on prescription drugs from CVS/caremark, an industry PBM leader. CVS/caremark offers prescription drug services through both retail pharmacies and mail-order, giving participants easy access and an affordable option for home delivery of maintenance medicines.

National CooperativeRx provides independent program oversight including regular audits, contract negotiation, and objective clinical and pharmacy benefit expertise.

Prescription drugs usually comprise a significant portion of overall health care costs, so it pays to consider a PBM program. To learn more download our product sheet, or contact PHC at (907) 474-4226 or (888) 474-4226. You can also visit www.caremark.com.
