Using Your Pharmacies

When you have prescription and pharmacy benefits through Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas, there are multiple ways to get your prescriptions. It starts with your pharmacy network that includes nationwide drugstores, grocery store chains and locally-owned drugstores. Prices you pay for drugs at network pharmacies will be less than those at other pharmacies.

Preferred Pharmacy Network

Did you know that if your BCBSTX plan has a Preferred Pharmacy Network, you can save money when you use a contracted preferred pharmacy? In fact, you may pay as little as $0. 

By using a preferred pharmacy, you may pay the lowest copay or coinsurance amount. Need a 90-day supply of a non-specialty covered drug? Just visit any preferred retail pharmacy in the Preferred Pharmacy Network.

You may know these pharmacies in the Preferred Pharmacy Network: Albertsons, Brookshire, H-E-B, Walgreens and Walmart.

Log in to your member account, click on the Pharmacy tab and search for an in-network pharmacy near you.
