Prescriptions and Medication

A pharmacist and a woman talk at the pharmacy counter

Rightway

Rightway, the city’s NEW retail prescription program, uses a network of participating pharmacies and will replace OptumRx starting 1/1/2026. To receive the highest level of benefits, you must use a participating pharmacy.

Prescriptions filled at a non-participating pharmacy are generally not covered. Those enrolled in the city’s medical plan will automatically receive prescription drug coverage.
