Your guide to your 2022 benefits

As you're getting to know your health plan, we want to remind you of some of the highlights for 2022! UC Open Enrollment is October 28 – November 19, 2021

The Top 10 Reasons to choose UC Blue & Gold HMO (PDF)!
New! Get no cost adult immunizations at Health Net pharmacies. You can now receive adult immunizations at $0 copayment at most Health Net contracted pharmacies. You can also continue to receive a no-cost flu shot, COVID-19 vaccine and booster at your in-network doctor's office and also at Health Net contracted pharmacies.
New! Specialty Medication Split Fill Program. Specialty medications are often expensive and may also include side effects that prevent patients from taking the medication or require a change to the dosage. Members can obtain an initial 2-week supply of high cost orally-administered anti-cancer drugs at no cost. This will determine if the patient can tolerate the high cost therapy before obtaining and paying for a full prescription supply.
New! Change to generic substitutions. Without prior authorization from Health Net, there is no coverage for brand name drugs when a generic equivalent is available. If it is medically necessary for you to take a brand name drug when a generic equivalent is available, you will pay $40 (for a up to a 30-day supply) or $80 (for a up to a 90-day supply). Your doctor will need to provide documentation to Health Net (through the prescription drug prior authorization process) explaining why you are unable to take a generic equivalent.
