Prescription

Maintenance medications are drugs you take on a regular basis to treat conditions such as high cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, depression, asthma, arthritis and allergies.

Cigna members:

Cigna members are required to fill all maintenance prescriptions (30, 60 or 90 days) at an SCL Health Pharmacy or through the Mail Order Pharmacy Services at Good Samaritan Medical Center. Having your maintenance prescriptions filled at a SCL Health Pharmacy provides a simple and cost effective way to order your prescriptions. As a benefit, having your maintenance prescriptions filled via mail order will save you time and money.

Next Steps

1. For existing prescriptions, please contact one of the outpatient pharmacies listed  to transfer your prescription.
2. If you are unable to pick-up your maintenance prescription at one of SCL Health pharmacy’s, you will be able to save time and money by filling your prescription through mail order via the Pharmacy Services at Good Samaritan. Review the "Mail Order" information for the 2 step process in setting up your mail order prescription.
3. For new prescriptions, you may fill one time at retail (i.e. Kroger, Walmart, Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS, etc.), thereafter you must transfer your prescription to a SCL Health Pharmacy.

The difference between formulary and non-formulary drugs

SCL Health has worked with Cigna and Kaiser to create a list (also called a "formulary") of preferred brand-name drugs for the plan. You pay less for brand-name drugs on the formulary list. If your doctor prescribes a medication that's not on the list, ask if there's an alternative medication you can try. To check for a brand-name medication on your prescription drug plan administrator's formulary (preferred) list, go to myCigna.com or kp.org to search for your medication. You may also find the custom SCL Health formulary list below. You can obtain the most accurate information by calling Cigna or Kaiser directly.
