Prescription benefits
Your Company continues to absorb the majority of rising pharmacy costs. On September 1, all Aetna plan members will transition to the CVS Exclusive Choice Plus Pharmacy Network. This network will include Your Company pharmacies, CVS retail and mail pharmacies, Walmart, and a few other retail pharmacies based on where you live.
Generic, preferred brand, and non-preferred brand categories remain the same. Co-pays for generics and preferred brands will increase, while non-preferred brands will remain $75.
Look up drug costs and learn more about the costs for your current medications.
Retail Co-pays (30-day supply) |
Your Company and CVS Mail Order Co-pays (90-day supply) |

Generic | $12 | $24 |
Preferred | $30 | $60 |

Your prescription drug co-pays do not count toward your Medical Plan Deductible or Out-of-Pocket Maximum, but they do apply toward your Pharmacy Out-of-Pocket Maximum ($1,450 for Employee Only and $2,900 for Employee +1 and Family coverage).
