For plan members in Illinois and Missouri
Find ways to save on your prescriptions
Generic Drugs
- Generic drugs usually cost less than brand-name drugs. They are rated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be as safe and effective as brand-name drugs.

Fill prescriptions for 100-days instead of 90-days
- Save 1 extra fill a year by requesting your doctor write a 100-day supply for all the maintenance medications you take.
