Know your drug coverage

We designed this Pharmacy Benefits Member Guide to help you easily understand your coverage and make the most of it. Inside, you'll also find smart ways to save on prescription costs. Because plans can vary, be sure to check your Evidence of Coverage for specific coverage details.

Pharmacy benefits are covered through a CalPERS direct contract with OptumRx. After you enroll, you will receive an ID card from Health Net which will include your medical benefits and OptumRx info.

For complete pharmacy listings and details on what's covered, call OptumRx at 855-505-8110 or visit the OptumRX web page.
