Sentara Medicare members have access to a large network of over 1,500 quality pharmacies.
Our Provider and Pharmacy Directory*1 includes information on:
- Retail chain pharmacies
- Our mail order pharmacy vendor, Express Scripts Pharmacy
- Other Pharmacies (independent retail, long-term care, and home infusion pharmacies)
The inclusion of a pharmacy in the directory does not guarantee that the pharmacy is open or is at the same location as listed in the directory. Listing does not guarantee participation in the network. All network pharmacies may not be listed in the directory.
You can search our pharmacy network using our convenient online pharmacy locator under "Search Online." This locator allows you to search for pharmacies close to your specific home address, in your city, or by pharmacy name. Maps and driving directions are provided with your results to help you quickly find the most convenient pharmacy for you.
All network pharmacies may not be listed in the directory. If you have any questions about Sentara Medicare pharmacies or benefits, please contact us.
