MEDICINE TIPS & HELP

• Ask for generic drugs. Prescriptions written for generic medications may save you money. Ask your doctor to indicate on the prescription the generic name of your medication, when available.


• Use the WellDyne Mail Service Program for long-term medications which may save you money, depending on your plan's co-pay structure. We strongly encourage you to use WellDyne's Mail Service Program for your long-term prescription needs. When using the Mail Service Program, you receive a long-term supply for each prescription.


• For the Mail Service Program, ask your doctor to always write your maintenance prescriptions for the maximum mail order supply provided by your benefit.
