Important information about your Anthem Blue Cross patients’ specialty prescriptions
Effective January 1, 2024, most specialty prescriptions will transfer to BioPlus, CarelonRx's specialty pharmacy that services Anthem members. This migration is taking place in multiple waves throughout the next year.
What happens next?
- If you have patients affected by this pharmacy change, BioPlus will contact you to request new prescriptions, refills, or prior authorizations. You will also receive a letter from CarelonRx.
- Current specialty prescriptions with open refills will automatically transfer to BioPlus.
- Impacted patients will receive a letter and a phone call, explaining this transition.
- There is nothing you or your patients need to do except speak with BioPlus when they call.
What is the benefit to you and your patients?
