MMP pharmacy benefits in Texas
Find a pharmacy
In most cases, you will need to use a pharmacy in our plan to get your prescription drugs. To find a pharmacy, view the Provider and Pharmacy Directories on the Find a Doctor page.
Don’t see your pharmacy listed in the directory?
Check your Member Handbook or call Pharmacy Member Services toll free at 833-232-1711 (TTY: 711) 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to find out about out-of-network coverage.
Fill a prescription
Bring your member ID card and prescription to any pharmacy in our plan. You may need to pay the pharmacy a copay when you pick up your prescription. Check your Member Handbook to learn more about copays. You can also order and manage your prescriptions online by logging in to your account.
As a Medicare member, you may qualify for Extra Help with your Medicare prescription drug costs. To qualify for Extra Help, you must be receiving Medicare, have limited income, and live in one of the 50 states. Please visit the Social Security website for further information.
Get a long-term supply of a drug
For some drugs, you can get a long-term supply when you fill your prescription. A long-term supply is up to a 93-day supply. It costs you the same as a one-month supply.
The Provider and Pharmacy Directory tells you which pharmacies can give you a long-term supply of certain drugs. You may also be able to get a long-term supply through our mail order service.
Wellpoint STAR+PLUS MMP works with many pharmacies in your area to cover a wide range of brand-name and generic drugs.
