Maintenance Choice is a feature of your prescription drug plan. Medications you take regularly (such as diabetes, asthma or high blood pressure medications) must be filled in 90-day supplies at CVS Pharmacy or through CVS Caremark Mail Service Pharmacy™.
Maintenance Choice gives you the choice of filling prescriptions for medications you take regularly–such as high blood pressure, diabetes or asthma medications. Either way, the cost is the same. If you fill in 30-day supplies, or at any other pharmacy, your medications won’t be covered, and you’ll have to pay the entire cost. Learn more about Maintenance Choice.
