RxMentorSM
Many of Humana's members currently take multiple medications prescribed by more than one doctor. As a result, the risks of drug/drug interactions, potential side effects, and higher prescription costs have increased. Eligible members are now being provided one-on-one telephone consultations with a pharmacist. The goal of this program is to optimize therapeutic outcomes by focusing on safety, lower-cost alternatives, adherence, and health literacy. |

Available at no additional cost, RxMentor assists eligible members in getting the most out of their medications by reducing the risk of harmful drug reactions and highlighting lower-cost alternatives to their prescribed medications.

Who is eligible for the program?
Members that meet predetermined eligibility requirements or are referred from other Humana clinical programs may qualify for the RxMentor program. Once a Humana member becomes eligible for RxMentor, the member will receive a call from a customer care representative to schedule a phone consultation with a Humana-employed pharmacist. During this one-on-one consultation, the pharmacist will discuss the member's medications and explore cost-savings opportunities. |
Consultations may include the following topics:
- Medication adherence
- Safety (possible adverse reactions from taking multiple medications together, potential drug-interactions, etc.)
