The state of Emergency has been declared for the following counties due to Tropical Storm Henri: Fairfield, New Haven, Middlesex, and New London. There are provisions being made for affected members.

Express Scripts (the Plan’s Pharmacy Benefit Manager) has activated an emergency benefit override that allows pharmacies, at the point of sale (POS), to override certain benefit coverage/edits such as an early refill during a government-defined emergency. In addition, if your home delivery of medications is affected by the emergency, you may provide a temporary alternate address (either online at www.express-scripts.com or by calling 1-800-818-6717) or request a local fill as needed. The Emergency Access to Benefits/Refill Too Soon override process is implemented with an effective date of Aug. 20, 2021, and an expiration date of Aug. 27, 2021.
