What is OptumRx's controlled substance prescription policy?

Starting January 1, 2020, OptumRx® is changing how it accepts controlled substance prescriptions. Your doctor must send these to us electronically through a certified system. For more information, click here to learn more about the new policy.

Why can't I find my specialty pharmacy medications to refill online?

At this time, the OptumRx.com member website does not offer our Specialty Pharmacy customers the ability to refill their medications online. We are working to add this functionality to our website in the near future—please keep checking back to start taking advantage of this new feature.

What is a covered drug?

A covered drug is a drug that is covered, or paid for, by your health insurance or prescription drug coverage. It is in your prescription drug list. It may be a brand-name product or a generic drug. It is important to know if your prescription is covered by your health insurance plan. Use the tools under Member Tools to check.

 

Note: When you give another person access to your account, they will be able to see information about you and your prescriptions. You should be careful about who you choose to have access to this information. You may also wish to review your choice of "Caregiver" or "Account Manager" on a regular basis by selecting "My Account Manager".
