This year, employees who have closed or grandfathered plans will also get access to this service. Preferred pharmacy network: Members can save money by using an in-network pharmacy. If they go to an in-network pharmacy, all copays and/or coinsurance would apply to their in-network deductible (if applicable) and in-network out-of- pocket maximum. Members may save even more by going to a preferred, in-network pharmacy, where they may get the lowest copay or coinsurance amount. If they go to an out-of-network pharmacy, they will generally have higher copays and/or coinsurance amounts. And all copays and/or coinsurance when going to an out-of-network pharmacy would apply to their out-of- network deductible (if applicable) and out-of-network out-of-pocket maximum. Any additional charge for using an out-of-network pharmacy would not apply to their out-of-pocket amounts. Prescription payment level change to six-tier: Prescription drug lists have different levels of coverage, which are called payment level tiers. Our pharmacy benefit now has six payment level tiers.
