Rite Aid's Insurance Change Conundrum: Privacy Or Policy?

Rite Aid does not know when you change your insurance. If you have changed your insurance, you will need to contact your local Rite Aid pharmacy to update your insurance information. You can also contact your insurance company directly to see if Rite Aid is a participating pharmacy in your area. Rite Aid accepts most major insurance plans, including Tricare, Elixir Insurance, Express Scripts, Caremark, OptumRx, Medimpact, Cigna, Humana, Medicaid, and Medicare Parts B and D.

Prescription drug savings

Rite Aid offers significant prescription drug savings, so you can get the medications you need for less. They accept most major insurance plans, including Tricare, Elixir Insurance, Express Scripts, Caremark, OptumRx, Medimpact, Cigna, Humana, Medicaid, Medicare Parts B and D, and many more.

If you are looking for other ways to save on prescription drugs, there are several prescription discount plans available that can help you save up to 80% on your prescriptions. These are not insurance plans but can be used by uninsured or underinsured individuals to get discounts on their prescription medications. Some popular options include SingleCare, GoodRx, ScriptSave WellRx, WebMDRx, and RxSaver. These services allow you to compare prices across different pharmacies and provide coupons or discount cards that can be used to obtain discounts at the pharmacy of your choice.

You can find the phone number for your insurance company on the back of your insurance card.

Prescription notifications

Rite Aid offers a free Rx Reminder Service that provides prescription notifications. This service sends reminders by email, text, or phone when prescriptions are due for a refill or are ready for pickup.

If you have any questions or concerns about your prescriptions, potential drug interactions, or any other medication-related topics, you can contact a healthcare professional through Rite Aid's online chat or by calling 1-800-RITEAID (1-800-748-3243). This service is available from 9 am to 8 pm EST, Monday through Friday, excluding weekends and holidays.

Prescription transfers

To transfer your prescription to Rite Aid, you can contact the Rite Aid store where you would like to have your prescription transferred. You can also transfer your prescription online. You will need your existing prescription label information, and Rite Aid will do the rest.

• Contact your new pharmacy to let them know that you want to transfer your prescriptions from your old pharmacy. Provide them with the name, strength, and prescription number of each prescription, along with the phone number and address of your old pharmacy.
• Gather your health and insurance information. Your new pharmacy will typically need to know your allergies (if applicable), prescription insurance information, and coupon information (if applicable).
• Wait for your prescription to be transferred. The amount of time this takes can depend on the number of prescriptions and the current workload of the pharmacies. It is recommended to give the pharmacies at least 2-3 days before trying to pick up your refills.

Please note that not all medications are eligible for transfer. Some prescriptions can only be transferred once, and some cannot be transferred at all due to restrictions on controlled substances.
