BCBS of Alabama's new pharmacy network excludes CVS pharmacy

CVS Pharmacy is not included in the new network of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama and its pharmacy benefit manager Prime Therapeutics, WSFA reports.

The change to BCBS of Alabama's pharmacy network, effective Jan. 1, is a result of increasing prescription drug costs, according to the report.   

The insurer told its members that to capitalize on their health benefits, they should transfer medications to an in-network pharmacy. Affected policyholders include those with individual and employer health plans.
