Rx Coverage

Your medical plan automatically includes prescription drug coverage, giving you access to thousands of pharmacies and affordable options for the medications you need. Coverage works a little differently depending on which plan you’re in, so review the detailed plan comparisons.

The prescription benefits are designed to:

  • Make it simple to fill prescriptions.
  • Encourage use of generic and preventive medications to save you money.
  • Provide access to specialty pharmacies when higher-cost, complex medications are required.
  • Save on long-term medications which can be shipped in 90-day (or 100-day with Kaiser) supplies at reduced costs through mail-order pharmacies.

CerpassRx Prescription Platform

Access participating retail pharmacies, refill or request mail-service prescriptions, track order status, view prescription history, and more via the CerpassRx microsite at cerpassrx.com/ensign. All specialty medications must be obtained through a CerpassRx specialty pharmacy.

If you’re enrolled in one of the Personify Health plans, your prescription coverage is provided through CerpassRx, giving you access to a wide network of national chains and local pharmacies. Generic prescriptions start at low copays, with brand-name and specialty drugs available at set copays or coinsurance. For added convenience and savings, you can use the mail-order program to get a 90-day supply of long-term medications delivered right to your door.

  • Centivo members use the CerpassRx network, giving you access to most major chains and local pharmacies.
  • Kaiser members fill prescriptions directly through Kaiser pharmacies or mail-order services, with options for up to a 100-day supply.
  • SIMNSA members use SIMNSA network pharmacies, where most medications come with very low copays.
