How much will my specialty medication cost?
You may not learn the cost of your specialty medication until we fill your prescription because drug prices and coverage may change. The actual cost of the drug is determined by your prescription drug benefit, quantity, strength and/or dosage of the medicine, and the order in which you purchase your prescriptions.
After you submit a request for a new specialty medication—or submit a refill order—a benefits specialist will review your insurance benefits. They will then reach out to you to discuss the price of your medication(s) and any potential financial assistance options. Benefits specialists work closely with foundations, drug manufacturers and community resources to provide your medications at the lowest possible cost. They'll even help you fill out the paperwork!
You will not be charged until you learn—and agree to—the cost of your medication. You can decline the medication if the price is too high.
What are my payment options if I have a secondary payer for specialty medications?
Let us know if you have another payer for your specialty medications. We'll need to verify that CenterWell Specialty Pharmacy can coordinate with your program. If we can coordinate with your program, a CenterWell Specialty Pharmacy team member will call you to discuss your options.
What if I can't afford the price of my specialty medication?
Our benefits specialists work closely with foundations, drug manufacturers and community resources to provide your medications at the lowest possible cost. If the price of your medicine is still too high after financial assistance is applied, you may decline the medication. You will not be charged until you agree to the price.
What is a secondary payer?
A primary payer is responsible for paying a claim—meaning they pay first when a claim is filed. A secondary payer can pick up the difference if a primary payer doesn't cover the full cost.
Secondary payers are often brought in to help cover the high cost of specialty medications. Many states offer state pharmaceutical assistance programs to help residents pay for their medications. In some instances, Medicaid can also be used to cover drug costs.
If you're interested in learning more about the resources available to help pay for your specialty medications, our dedicated financial support team may be able to help.

If you didn’t get a text or email within 5 minutes, you’ll need to request another code by selecting the Resend code link when setting up 2-factor authentication.
Why am I getting an error message about my email address?
You must use an email address that is unique to you. You can’t use an email address that is used by another customer.
Why am I getting an error message that my code is invalid?
Each code expires after 5 minutes, so you may get an error message if you use an expired code.
Select the Resend code link to request a new code when you’re setting up 2-factor authentication.
