Pharmacy Plan Updates – Liviniti (formerly Southern Scripts)

Our pharmacy network is not changing but Southern Scripts is re-branding to the name Liviniti. You may already see this name change within communication materials (i.e. vendor website, vendor notifications). A new member ID card will be issued to reflect this re-branding.

You may notice some new protocols as it relates to prior authorization when it comes to certain classes of medications. These authorizations are intended to ensure clinical appropriateness of their intended use.

You may currently have been taking or will be newly prescribed to take a medication that requires your physician to complete an authorization process with Liviniti. This will be managed and coordinated between your physician and Liviniti for review and approval.

Medications impacted include Ozempic, Wegovy, Saxenda, Trulicity, Victoza, Mounjaro, Rybelsus, Nurtec, Emgality, Qulipta, Linzess, Auryxia and Repatha.

Your Prescription Coverage Reminder

Ensure your prescription is processed through Liviniti and not Anthem. Anthem is your provider network not your prescription coverage.

New Member ID Card

As a result of re-branding from Southern Scripts to Liviniti, you will receive a new ID card.

New Health Programs

A hospital emergency room should be your first choice when facing a life-threatening health crisis. But it may not be your best choice in other less-serious situations. That’s where the HealthComp team can help you. Their expert advisors will see that you get the right care, at the right time, in the right place. They can help you save a lot of money too, since hospital ERs often cost two to three times more than the same care at your doctor’s office.

HealthComp advisors may call you to talk about a recent ER visit. This phone call lets them find out how they might be able to help you. During the call, they will:

  • Find out if you have a primary care physician (PCP)
  • Provide support for any follow-up visits
  • Offer other resources and educational opportunities

By working with HealthComp, you can be confident in choosing the most appropriate options for care – whether it’s a hospital ER, an urgent care center, your doctor’s office or even a telemedicine visit.

Provides you or a covered dependent with access to a licensed registered nurse for conditions that include:

  • Asthma
  • COPD
  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
  • Diabetes

Why is this program important?

You are provided with routine access to a nurse who will support you with a personalized care plan and educational material relative to you and your well-being needs.

How do you get started?

You may receive an outreach from a nurse practitioner from the HealthComp team to help you with your well-being needs in a personalized manner.

If you would like to connect with a nurse to learn more, you are encouraged to consider a self-referral approach to receive support around your well-being needs. Call 800-442-7247 (Monday – Friday 8am to 5pm) to get started. Click here to view the Disease Management Referral Form.
