Caremark IS cheaper than SuperTarget

March 03, 2008

Hey gals..some of us were chatting the other day about the price difference with Caremark and Target regarding injectables. I just had a feeling the rep from Caremark screwed up my price quote...it is indeed roughly $106 cheaper to buy from Caremark than Supertarget regarding 300 iu of Follistim and 10,000 hcg shot.

Just thought someone might need this for future reference. :-)

Hey Is caremark the same as Mail Orders? Thanks to Kelli I called my insurance asking them abt prefered vendors and Mail order would have saved me atleast $300 on medications so far :( but too late now..

March 03, 2008

Umm..I don't think so..the number for Caremark is 800 237-2767. Is Mail Orders a company? I mean this is a mail order pharmacy but the name is Caremark..sorry this is confusing..hehe..

Sorry, Hopen..wish I coulda told you sooner :( Were you on injectables??

March 03, 2008

Its funny tho b/c my re said SuperTarget is competetive in price..but Caremark has me saving $100 + so far!

March 03, 2008

wow, thats great kelli! I will keep it in mind for the future IVF cycles - none of our pharmacies carried any of this fertiltiy injectables and i went thru a mail order place too but my insurnace just picked it. Im curious to see if this place will be cheaper and if my ins deals with them too.

Yeah, Chelsea..it just takes a phone call to get a price estimate. They are what BC/BS recommended me to use!

No, ur insurance's pharmacy plan will have something like prefered pharmacies, prefered brands, etc and one of that is mail orders. Like they give u 3 months supplies for the price of 2 (per my plan). I pay $50/month on prenatals. So, if I get a 90 day supply from walgreens I pay $150 but thru my insunrance's mail order I just pay $100 :)

Check out ur insurance plan under drug coverage

again 100 is my out of pocket maximum. soo, if 90 days supply cost $500, I still pay oonly 100 but at walgreens I pay $500.

March 03, 2008

Oh ok..well that must be what BC/BS recommends..b/c they said I'd get the best price w/ Caremark, and they were correct...

March 03, 2008

Wow, hopen..huge savings!!!

March 03, 2008

Yeah I think caremark is BC/BS's mail order plan

March 03, 2008

It is BC/BS I have that, it is wonderful!

March 03, 2008

But u know I feel they are too sneaky abt it..They didnt mention abt this mail order thingy until after Kelli told me abt it and I asked them..ugghhh so no savings for me anyways.

March 03, 2008

Oh, no way, Hopen. That is terrible!!! Sorry :(

I emailed and asked if mine were subject to inf ded and such..and that's when they said to use Caremark.

Caremark does actually have rthe best prices as I am Currently an employee and process meds at the caremark mail order facility in illinois...Even long before I worked there,they've always had fair costs on meds...I get my fertility meds there..
