On May 1, 2019, IngenioRx (an Anthem company) will replace ExpressScripts as the pharmacy benefit plan manager for UC medical plan members. This transition will provide UC medical plan members with 24/7/365 customer service access along with improved online services and information.

There are no changes to UC medical or pharmacy plans as a result of this change and plan members can continue to use the same retail pharmacies used today for pharmacy purchases. Individuals currently taking advantage of home delivery or who use specialty medications will receive additional communications directly from Anthem in the coming weeks.

Additional information is available on the Anthem Medical Plan Options page.
