Taking Maintenance Medicines? Then Check This Out

Maintenance medicines are those used regularly to treat or manage conditions, such as asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol.

With the Maintenance Choice Program, you can get a 90-day supply of maintenance medicines by using Aetna Rx Home Delivery mail-order pharmacy or a CVS pharmacy near you. After two fills at your local retail pharmacy, you will pay the full cost of the medicine if you choose to continue to receive a 30-day supply.

With Maintenance Choice, you will receive deeper discounts when you fill your maintenance medicines with a 90-day supply. Keep in mind that you will pay the same cost share for 90 days of your medication as you would for 60 days. It’s like getting a month free. Plus, when you save, the plan saves. This helps keep plan costs—and your premium costs—in check.
