Pharmacy

Help your patients with Wellmark pharmacy benefits save money at the pharmacy by prescribing generic drugs whenever possible. Most of your patients have the lowest out-of-pocket costs for generic drugs. Second tier drugs (preferred brand name drugs) usually have a mid-range copayment or coinsurance, while third tier drugs have the greatest out-of-pocket costs.

Catalyst Rx is Wellmark’s pharmacy benefit manager. Catalyst Rx is the fourth largest publicly traded pharmacy benefit management company in the United States. Catalyst Rx contracts with more than 59,000 pharmacies throughout the United States.*
