Commonwealth Care II and III Pharmacy Copayments

Commonwealth Care members must pay a portion of the cost of covered drugs that may be obtained through the retail and mail order pharmacies. This out-of-pocket copayment is collected at the pharmacy at the time the prescriptions are filled or when the member submits the mail order prescription. Members may pay different out-of-pocket copayments depending on which plan type they have. Certain members may be exempt from paying a copayment, click here to see the copayment exemption rules.

The BMC HealthNet Plan Formulary allows members and providers to search for a specific drug and confirm its tier assignment. Users are reminded to choose the member’s correct plan type before looking up a drug in order to obtain accurate tier information. After determining which tier a covered drug belongs to, the user may look up the tier and member plan type in the chart above to determine the actual out-of-pocket copayment.
