 McKesson Specialty
McKesson Specialty is our preferred pharmacy for the distribution and
medication management services of high cost injectables and specialty
medications. Physicians may also order these medications, either
for delivery to their office (for office administered injectables) or
the patient (for self-administered medications).

McKesson Specialty provides national pharmacy services, focusing on
specialty and injectable medications and therapy for patients with
complex disease states, such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis
and hepatitis C.
Benefits of the program include:
- Supplies for injecting the medication are included, such as needles/syringes,
alcohol swabs, and sharps containers, at no additional cost.
- 24-hour patient access to pharmacists and nurses for medication counseling.
- Coordination of patient’s pharmacy and medical benefits.
- Outbound calls for refill coordination.
- Convenience –delivery in unmarked packaging to assure privacy.
Our partnership with McKesson Specialty may offer you financial benefits
as well. If you pay coinsurance (a percentage of the total prescription
cost), you will likely have a lower out-of-pocket cost. Also, if you have
a maximum yearly and/or lifetime benefit, your coverage may extend even
longer. If you have a copayment (a specific dollar amount for each
prescription), it is the same as what you currently pay at your local
pharmacy and will be delivered to your home or office.
