Dose packaging is customized to your personal medication schedule, making it easier to understand how and when to take your medications.

This easy-to-use packaging features your medication doses in presorted, sealed pouches for each time of day you take medications—morning, afternoon, evening and/or bedtime. This will eliminate the need for daily or weekly pill containers and will help ensure you are taking the right medications at the right time. This service is offered through many preferred pharmacies for Blue Advantage. Check with your local pharmacy to see if this is a service they offer (additional expense could apply).

This packaging service is also available through a home delivery pharmacy option. Our preferred home delivery options offer this packaging service for members taking multiple daily medications and delivers it to your home at no additional cost. Additionally, they also align your prescription refill dates to eliminate the need for multiple deliveries or trips to the pharmacy.

Did you know that you may be paying more if you are using an out of network or non-preferred Pharmacy? Be sure to visit one of our in-network and Preferred pharmacies to make sure you are getting your medications at the lowest cost possible. Check here to see if your pharmacy is preferred.

If you are already using an in-network pharmacy, but cannot afford all of your medications, have you considered filling for a 90 day supply? Filling your prescriptions in a 90 day supply instead of the standard 30 day supply can save you not only time, but also money. In addition to saving extra trips to the Pharmacy, you also save on the cost since you get a three month’s supply at the cost of only two months. This can help ensure you have your medications on hand when you need them will also limiting your out of pocket expense. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about changing to a 90 day supply.
