Home Delivery and Maintenance Drugs
Depending on the health plan a member has with Anthem, they may need to fill maintenance drugs through home delivery or an Rx Maintenance 90 pharmacy. Maintenance drugs are medicines used for long-term health conditions like asthma, heartburn, high blood pressure, allergies, and high cholesterol.
Retail 90
Through Retail90, employees can choose to get a 90-day supply of any covered medication from a participating local retail pharmacy. That includes prescriptions for maintenance medications, those taken on an ongoing basis for conditions like asthma, diabetes or high cholesterol. This means they can choose face-to-face personalized service from a local pharmacist.

There’s an app for all of that, too. Anthem's new Sydney App makes it easy to manage pharmacy benefits from anywhere. The Sydney App can be found at the Apple Store® (iOS) or on Google Play (Android).
