TRICARE offers several pharmacy options after Walgreens contract not renewed

  • Published
WASHINGTON --  As of January 1, 2012, Walgreens will no longer be a TRICARE network provider. If a beneficiary fills a prescription at Walgreens after Dec. 31, 2011, they will pay 100% of the cost and will need to file a paper claim for non-network benefit reimbursement (with a higher cost share).

Additional information can be found at the following websites; http://www.tricare.mil/walgreens/, http://www.express-scripts.com/TRICARE, http://www.defense.gov/news/newsarticle.aspx?id=66626.

These resources can be used to find information on how to transfer a prescription, find a new pharmacy, or other FAQs.

If needed, beneficiaries can take current prescription bottles to a new network pharmacy to have prescriptions transferred.

Beneficiaries who need help finding a pharmacy or changing their medications to home delivery, or who have other questions, can contact Express Scripts at 1-877-885-6313.
