Capital Rx is New Prescription Drug Manager

Capital Rx is New Prescription Drug Manager

After a thorough and extensive vetting process, the DEA Health Benefit Trustees chose Capital Rx to be our new Prescription Drug Manager, effective February 1, 2026. Capital Rx will replace the incumbent Express Scripts. Members will be covered by Express Scripts until midnight on January 31st so there will be NO break in prescription coverage should you need to fill a prescription.

Capital Rx is accepted by most major chains (CVS, Walgreens, etc.) and retail pharmacies throughout the United States.

Capital Rx uses Costco for mail-order prescriptions. So, members receiving their medications through the mail can continue to do so using Costco.

● The Capital Rx co-pays are the same co-pays we experienced with Express Scripts.

 Members should receive new Capital Rx Identification Cards and Welcome Packets shortly. Because of the severe weather conditions around the United States, you may experience a delay in receiving your new ID Cards.
