CHANGING PHARMACY BENEFIT MANAGER 4/1/21
Sheet Metal Workers’ Local 36 Benefit Fund would like to announce we are changing our Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) from OptumRx to AmWINS RX beginning April 1, 2021. You should have received new ID cards with AmWINS RX logo and information that your pharmacy will need. Just present this new card beginning 4/1/21 to your local retail pharmacy to continue to fill your prescriptions. Elixir Pharmacy will be our new mail order pharmacy. Sign up for Elixir Pharmacy at www.amwinsrx.com/membercenter via the Elixir Mail Order icon in the middle of the page. Please note, you will not be able to register for home delivery with Elixir Pharmacy until after March 29, 2021.
Medications play an important role in keeping you as healthy as possible. AmWINS Rx will strive to provide you and your Welfare Fund with excellent service and easy-to-use tools to help you get the prescriptions you need with a goal of helping you obtain the maximum value from your pharmacy benefits. Follow these tips to save time and money.
If you have any questions or need more information about the mail-order transition, please contact AmWINS Rx’s Customer Service Center at 800-956-7682, Monday – Friday 8:00 am to 8:00 pm.
