Real-Time Benefits

Visibility for providers and members into low-cost drug alternatives for savings at the point of prescribing

Tapping into the power of prescribers

We know how important members’ relationships are with their providers, and we take our role in supporting them very seriously. Our connections with providers through Real-Time Benefits allow them to see — and select — the most relevant, lower-cost alternatives based on members’ plans, helping them save right at the point of prescribing. Through the electronic health record (EHR), providers have access to:

  • drug costs
  • prior authorizations
  • lower cost, clinically appropriate alternatives

Greater cost transparency upfront helps providers make more informed decisions in the office, avoiding unnecessary surprises for members at the pharmacy counter.

 

>49% of providers receive Real-Time Benefits information in their members’ electronic health records1

 

Consumers must navigate their health and prescription benefit plans to make the most cost-effective choices. CVS Caremark is committed to helping plan members find the most affordable options to keep them healthy.
