Shaping the Future of Pharmacy Care

Our "Pharmacy for the Future" is more than a corporate mission to become the nation's leading pharmacy benefits manager (PBM). It is the commitment to a vision that will link patients, physicians, and pharmacists to improve the quality of patient care and reduce prescription drug benefit costs.

Medco Health has already made significant investment in an advanced technology platform to turn this vision into reality. Together with its partners and clients, Medco Health is shaping the future of pharmacy practice and pharmaceutical care. We combine traditional commitments to service, quality and affordable prescription drug care with leading-edge capabilities unimagined a decade ago. Among them:

  • High-tech connections among physicians and pharmacists at the point of patient care for formulary and drug utilization reviews
  • World-class standards of dispensing accuracy within our automated pharmacies
  • Leading information technology to track and manage all aspects of the pharmacy benefit effectively
  • Call centers staffed by professionals who can provide timely advice while reviewing a patient's prescription drug history through an integrated database
  • Next-generation Internet technology that offers personalized formats for records, instant access to detailed plan design and health information, and click-convenient ordering of prescription refills.
