<br />Kathy Clark answered some questions from the previous meeting: <br /> <br />Mail Orders Prescriptions <br />They can be made for a 3-month supply of medicine for the same cost of a 2-month <br />order. Humana's plan design only allows you to get a 3-month supply for the cost of 3 <br />months. HRH was able to negotiate that with no additional administrative cost from <br />other companies. It will cost the City more money because they are paying for that extra <br />month of supplies. Overall, they can administer that. <br /> <br />Flex Cards <br />We wanted to bring this back to you because employees had issues using their Flex Cards <br />at places like the Pharmacies and Wal Mart. Employees would have to pay for their <br />prescription out of their pockets then get reimbursed for that claim. With Aetna and TML <br />they both provide a card that Pharmacies and Wal Mart will take without the employee <br />having to complete a paper claim. Currently with Humana the Flex card cannot be used to <br />purchase Over The Counter drugs without a paper claim form for reimbursements. <br /> <br />Question George Van Dyke: <br /> <br />Did you say at the last meeting that even though it is required now, starting January 2008 <br />per the IRS that will no longer be required. <br /> <br />Answer Kathy Clark: <br /> <br />Yes, that is correct. In 2008 a coding system will be in place at Pharmacies and Wal Mart <br />that flags items as "flex qualified." <br /> <br />Question Juliane Graham: <br /> <br />Why didn't you show any information on this for Blue Cross/ Blue Shield? <br /> <br />Answer Neal Welch: <br /> <br />They were not one of the final three being considered for BAFO. <br />
