Just a reminder that your health and prescription drug deductibles start over every January 1. If you are filling a prescription that is NOT a generic, you will first have to meet the individual $100 deductible (maximum of two per family for a total of $200) before Wellmark pays anything towards your prescriptions.
If your prescription comes in a generic, you may want to talk to your doctor about whether switching to a generic would be a good option for you. There is never a deductible on generic drugs. (The deductible will apply regardless of whether there is a generic available for your drug.)
If you have questions about when and how the prescription drug deductible works, please check out the video on the Intranet>Benefits tab>2010 Benefit Videos> Wellmark Health Benefits.
