BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina and BlueChoice HealthPlan fully-insured individual, small group, large group and administrative service only (ASO) plans, and Medicare Advantage plans are impacted.

The following plans are NOT impacted:

• ASO plans for which we do not administer the pharmacy benefit and do not provide specialty drug medical management services. 
• State Health Plan members will continue using Express Scripts to administer their pharmacy benefit.

Members who have their pharmacy and medical benefits through one of our health plans will receive a new ID card. Members can also get an electronic version of their ID card by logging into My Health Toolkit^®.

PreCheck MyScript is a Real Time Benefit Check solution that provides patient specific prescription drug cost and coverage information at the point of care in real time. PreCheck MyScript runs a trial claim through our pharmacy claim platform so you can:

• Tell your patient the precise cost of the medication.
• Evaluate therapeutically equivalent medication alternatives, if available, covered under the member-specific benefit design.
• Understand medication coverage, including which medications may not require a prior authorization.
• Submit a PA, often receiving results in seconds.

PreCheck MyScript allows you to discuss cost and options with your patient while they are in your office and before the prescription is sent to the pharmacy. This can remove cost barriers for patients which can lead to increased medical compliance.

With PreCheck MyScript, there are no forms to fill out and there is no need to send a fax or make a phone call. A PA request can be submitted electronically through the tool you are already working in.

PreCheck MyScript shows:

• The member’s out-of-pocket cost based on the medication being prescribed.
• The pharmacy selected.
• The member’s benefit plan coverage including the deductible.
• The pricing in real time. The price you see on the screen is what is in our pharmacy claim platform for that drug for that particular member’s benefit plan. The pricing information and Prescription Drug List (PDL) are accurate at that point in time and are subject to change.

When you prescribe a medication that needs a PA, you will see an alert on your electronic medical record (EMR) screen. The member’s plan-specific information and some questions specific to that drug are pre-populated. Once all required fields are completed, submit the request and you may receive the determination within seconds. PreCheck MyScript also tells you if a prescription is not covered or non-preferred, which is a cost savings to the patient.

PreCheck MyScript seamlessly integrates with the following EMRs, with additional integrations ongoing:

• Allscripts - prescription price transparency
• AthenaHealth - Real-Time Benefit Check
• Cerner*
• DrFirst - myBenefitCheck
• Epic*
• NewCropRx - NewCrop-RTBI
• Veradigm - Veradigm TruePriceRx

*Access is dependent on the Health System

PreCheck MyScript can be accessed on the Pharmacy pages of our websites www.SouthCarolinaBlues.com or www.BlueChoiceSC.com. You can also go directly to the portal. You will need to register to create an account to utilize the tool.
