Halethorpe Pharmacy

Nineteen years of sponsoring little league, softball and basketball teams. Crazy how time goes by. So many great memories.

Are you a State of Maryland Employee or Retiree? Do you know a State of Maryland Employee or Retiree? Please SHARE and Read this very important message about the new prescription insurance that starts January 1 2018.

The new prescription insurance for State of Maryland Employees and Retirees CAN BE USED AT ANY PARTICIPATING PHARMACY WITHOUT RESTRICTION OR PENALTY. Your copays are the same regardless of the pharmacy you use. I have had many concerned calls and even customers standing at my pharmacy counter crying thinking they no longer have a choice in their pharmacist.

Halethorpe Pharmacy and Independent Drug, my two pharmacies, as well as virtually all independent pharmacies in Maryland ARE PARTICIPATING PHARMACIES in the Caremark pharmacy insurance network.

The confusion is the new insurance is a division of CVS Health called Caremark who also owns CVS Pharmacies. There is a big CVS logo on the new card. The cards arrived with a multipage benefits booklet. If you read the booklet cover to cover you will find the small section that says you can use the insurance at any participating pharmacy. If you blink you will miss it.

Thank you for your help in sharing this information. We appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to be your pharmacy in 2018.

Happy Holidays!
