Pharmacy Switch Contractor - REMINDER

​To: ​Participating Pharmacies
​Date: ​April 24, 2006
​Re: ​Pharmacy Switch Contractor - REMINDER

The department previously posted a notice on February 21, 2006 regarding a change in switch contractors. This is a reminder that NDC Health (dba Per-Se Technologies) will be the sole switch for electronic pharmacy claims effective May 1, 2006. WebMD (Emdeon Business Services) will no longer provide switching services directly to the department.

This change affects pharmacy claims associated with the Illinois Medicaid and Illinois Cares Rx (formerly SeniorCare and Circuit Breaker Pharmaceutical Assistance) programs. Pharmacies currently using WebMD should contact WebMD for specific information regarding their current arrangements for switching services.

If you have any questions about this notice, please contact the Bureau of Pharmacy Services at 217-524-7478.
