Caremark: New Prescription Provider
Important information for those who utilize the Mail Order Prescription
Drug Service:
- Starting July 1, 2000, Caremark will be your new provider of
mail order prescription drugs replacing PCS.
- You can call PCS toll free at 1-888-727-5573 if you have any questions
on prescription orders prior to July 1, 2000.
What Does This Mean To You?

an order is submitted to Caremark without an original prescription, the
order will be returned.
- Beginning July 1, 2000, orders should be submitted, along with
the appropriate copayment and original prescription to Caremark Inc. at
P.O. Box 407009, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33340-7009.
- If you have any questions regarding your new prescription drug benefit,
please call Caremark Customer Service toll-free at 1-800-378-0802. (Please
note: Caremark's Customer Service number will be operational on or about
June 5, 2000).

Pre-tax Expense Account Reminder
Reimbursements from the health care and dependent care pre-tax accounts
for the Plan Year July 1, 1999 to June 30, 2000 will be based on receipts
for expenses incurred during that period. Expenses are considered incurred
on the day the service is provided, not when you are billed or when they
are paid. After the close of the Plan Year, you have 3 months (or until
September 30, 2000) to submit your reimbursement request to Eastern
Benefit Systems, Inc. (EBS), Penn's pre-tax account administrator. If you
have not received your Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your provider,
you may still file your claim before the September 30 deadline and forward
the EOB later to EBS. If you have any questions, please contact EBS at 1-888-736-6359.
