Can I have maintenance medications delivered to my home through a mail order vendor?
Yes, you can get maintenance medications filled through a mail order vendor and take advantage of a copay discount. If you currently receive medication through Florida Blue’s mail order service, your prescription information will transfer over to the new vendor and your next scheduled refill will come from Express Scripts.
