With mail order, you can have ongoing medications mailed right to your home. Learn
more on mymedica.com, or contact Medica’s designated mail order vendor, Express
Scripts Pharmacy, at 800-263-2398.

*Express Scripts® administers Medica’s pharmacy program.
When Can I Get Refills?
You can refill your prescription when you’ve used 85% of your medication. The pharmacy calculates this amount based on your
prescription’s quantity and the date you last had it filled. As an example, say your prescription is for a 31-day supply:

            Days’ supply of medication              31
            Multiplied by 85%                    x .85
                                                    26

In this example, you can refill your prescription 26 days after you fill it. These refill guidelines help ensure safe use of
medications and minimize waste. If there’s a reason you would need to refill sooner (for example, you are leaving on a vacation)
call Customer Service.

Are There Any Restrictions On My Medications?
Some drugs have special requirements or limitations, which are noted on the drug list and in the Price a Medication tool
on mymedica.com.
ƒƒ   Prior Authorization (PA): To receive coverage, your doctor must first request approval from Medica.
ƒƒ   Step Therapy (ST): Step therapy is sometimes used when there are several drug options for treating the same condition.
     Before receiving coverage for a drug requiring step therapy, you must first try one or more preferred drugs.
ƒƒ   Quantity Limit (QL): The maximum amount allowed for a specific period of time or per prescription.
     For example, 60 tablets per month.

What Is A Specialty Drug, And How Do I Get A Specialty Prescription Filled?
Some medications are considered specialty drugs. These drugs are used to treat certain complex health problems. Specialty
drugs tend to be very expensive and may need special handling. The Specialty Drug List is divided into two groups, preferred
and non-preferred. Preferred specialty drugs have the lowest copayment or coinsurance. To see your share of the costs and a
list of medications that are considered specialty drugs, log on to mymedica.com. You’ll fill most specialty drug prescriptions
through Medica’s designated specialty pharmacy, Accredo Specialty Pharmacy. Contact them at 866-544-6817.

What If I Have A Health Savings Account (HSA)?
With an HSA, you generally pay the full cost of your prescriptions until you meet your deductible. Some HSA plans cover certain
preventive maintenance drugs before you meet your deductible. To see if yours does, check your coverage document on
mymedica.com. Or you can use the Price a Medication tool to look up your cost for a particular drug. The tool takes into account
your specific coverage and whether you’ve met your deductible.

Do I Need A Referral?
Getting a referral when you need one ensures you receive your highest level of benefits. Here’s what you need to know about referrals:
§ When you see a specialist within your care system, you don’t need a referral.
§ If you need to see a doctor who’s in the Medica Elect network but isn’t in your care system,
     you’ll need a referral from your primary care clinic.
§ If you need to see a provider outside the Medica Elect network, you’ll need a referral from
     your primary care clinic and pre-approval (called “prior authorization”) from Medica.
To learn more about referrals, see the tip sheet in your welcome packet or at medica.com/members.

4. In your results, look for the clinic’s Care System listing. That’s where you’ll find the clinic’s PCC ID, which looks
   like this: PCCID: 0000000123. If no PCC ID is displayed, you can’t choose the clinic as a primary care clinic.

ENCOURAGING AND MOTIVATING YOUR EMPLOYEES
TO REACH THEIR WELLNESS GOALS
My Health Rewards by Medica helps employees build healthy habits and live their best life. In 2020, a new program, My Health
Rewards Invest, will go a step further to motivate your employees to reach specific health goals. When you invest in the health of
your employees, you invest in their future.

My Health Rewards Invest Program Strategy
My Health Rewards Invest is a buy-up program and is available to employees enrolled in a health savings account (HSA).*
Employees that meet monthly wellness goals will earn up to $75 per month (up to $900 per calendar year). Funds are
deposited quarterly by the employer into the employee’s HSA.**

How it Works
Employees track their calories with MyFitnessPal. It’s free in the App Store or Google Play. Sleep and steps can be tracked with a
compatible fitness tracker including the Max BuzzTM, a fitness tracker offered through the My Health Rewards Invest program.

Employees sync their nutrition, sleep and steps with their My Health Rewards mobile app powered by Virgin Pulse, making it easy
to watch the progress toward their monthly goals.

* Employees with an HSA can earn the My Health Rewards Invest rewards. Spouses and dependents over age 18
 are eligible for the standard My Health Rewards program. Employees not enrolled in an HSA will have continued
 access to the standard My Health Rewards program.
**Medica will send a quarterly member detail report reflecting the HSA dollars earned along with a check for the
 total HSA dollars earned for the quarter. The report and check will be sent approximately one month following
 the end of the quarter. The employer deposits and distributes funds to their employees' HSA using their chosen
 HSA vendor. Medica will not be responsible for tracking IRS HSA contribution limits. It is the responsibility of the
 member to know the IRS HSA contribution limits and plan accordingly.

wellness goals. Pairing incentive strategies with digital technologies and daily engagement can drive improvements in the way
employees engage in their health.

activity. When your employees stick to our program, they’ll build healthy habits, have fun and experience the lifelong rewards of
