Managing a complex condition isn’t easy. That’s why your TRS-ActiveCare health plan has chosen Accredo as a provider to fill your specialty prescriptions beginning September 1, 2023. At Accredo, you’ll have access to personalized care and support from pharmacists and nurses specially-trained in your condition.
Prescription Transfer
Beginning on September 1, 2023, remaining refills of your specialty medication prescriptions currently being filled by CVS Caremark will be transferred to Accredo. Once your prescription is ready for order scheduling, Accredo will contact you via phone to schedule your delivery.
Your prescription will not be automatically transferred to Accredo:
- If your prescription will expire before September 1, 2023
- If your prescription does not have any remaining refills
- If your prescription is a controlled substance
- If you have a new specialty medication prescription
- If your letter indicates you have a limited distribution drug
- If your prescription has special government regulations (e.g., Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy or REMS drugs)
Filling for the First Time
How to fill your prescription with Accredo for the first time.
- Once your prescription is ready for order scheduling, an Accredo patient care advocate will call you to schedule free delivery on a date that works for you. We’ll ship your medication with any special handling it may need, such as refrigeration.
- If you receive copay assistance, please have the information ready so we can transfer it for you.
- Because your shipment is coming from a new pharmacy, you may notice changes in packaging, prescription labels and literature.
