Pharmacy and Prescription drugs
Your HARP prescriptions will be covered by the NYRx Medicaid pharmacy program. You will need to show your pharmacist either your Medicaid Card or your Highmark ID card. Either card will give the pharmacy your Medicaid Client Identification Number (CIN).
Most pharmacies in New York take NYRx. Check health.ny.gov/NYRx to see if your pharmacy does.
Most drugs and supplies, including diabetic test strips, are covered by NYRx. Check health.ny.gov/NYRx to see if your drugs and supplies are covered, or if they require approval from your doctor.
To contact someone for help about your Medicaid pharmacy benefits, contact the NYRx Medicaid Helpline at: 800-541-2831 (TTY 711). The Helpline hours are Mon-Fri 8AM-8PM, and Sat 9AM-1PM.
