Skip the drugstore - have your medicine delivered to your home!

Why wait in line at the drugstore if you don’t have to? If you take prescribed medicine on a regular basis, you can get up to a 90-day supply delivered to your door.1 And depending on your plan, you may save on copays because the cost of a 90-day supply of many drugs is usually less than three 30-day refills. On average, members save up to 25% on their copay when they use home delivery.2 Standard shipping is free, and you can even set up automatic refills.

Getting started with home delivery is easy:

1. Go online to get a prescription order form

  • Visit anthem.com, choose Manage Your Prescriptions from the home page and log in with your username and password. If you haven’t signed up on the site yet, you’ll need to do that first.
  • On your personal pharmacy page, select Start a New Prescription.
  • That’ll take you to the site of the company that helps manage our prescription benefits.(3) There, you can download and print the physician fax form or, if you already have a new prescription for a 90-day supply of medicine from your doctor, download the home delivery mail form. You’ll use one of these forms to send in your prescription.

2. Get a new prescription from your doctor for home delivery.

  • You’ll need an up-to-90-day supply prescription. Your doctor can send in your prescription through e-prescribe or fax it using the physician fax form from step 1.
  • Also ask your doctor for a 30-day prescription. Get this filled at your regular pharmacy to make sure you have enough medicine to last until you get your first home delivery prescription.

3. Send in your prescription.

  • Fill out the home delivery order form and mail it to the address on the form. Be sure to include prescription and payment information along with it, OR
  • Your doctor can fill out the physician fax form and fax or e-fax it to the number on the form.

4. Pay for your prescription.

  • You can pay by check, e-check, money order, credit or debit card, flexible spending account or health savings account.
  • You can sign up for e-payments or have your credit card on file online. To set up your payments, go to anthem.com, choose Manage Your Prescriptions from the home page and log in. Then, select Start a New Prescription. Once you’re on our prescription benefit manager’s site, select My Account to choose how you’d like to pay.
  • If you want to use our Home Delivery Pharmacy and are enrolled in a program that helps you with your copay or if you use manufacturer coupons to help pay for prescriptions, you’ll need to give the program or manufacturer detailed claim information and a receipt to get paid back. The company that manages our prescription benefits can’t bill us or these third parties for prescriptions you fill through home delivery.

A few important things to know

  • If your doctor prescribes a brand-name drug, your pharmacy plan may require the home delivery pharmacy to send a generic version instead.
  • All prescriptions and refills, including those sent by your doctor, will be filled as soon as the home delivery pharmacy gets them.
  • In most cases, your first order will arrive within two weeks after the home delivery pharmacy gets it. After that, the orders will arrive within one week.
  • If you need your medicine sooner, you can call the home delivery pharmacy and ask for overnight delivery. It will still take 3 to 5 days to process the order, plus the shipping time. You’ll be charged extra for the faster shipping.
  • Your orders will be delivered by the U.S. Postal Service, UPS or FedEx.
  • With some drugs, you may need to sign to accept delivery.(4)
