Prime Therapeutics: Covered Person Identification Card Update for Mississippi State and School Employees’ Health Insurance Plan

Effective: January 1, 2016

Dear Valued Provider,

Effective January 1, 2016, Prime Therapeutics (Prime) will begin serving as the pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) for the Mississippi State and School Employees’ Health Insurance Plan. In preparation for this transition, a printing error occurred in producing the new ID cards which were recently mailed. Unfortunately, the RxBIN and RxPCN numbers were incorrectly printed on the cards. The ID number on the cards is correct, and is the same number as was used by Catamaran, the Plan’s previous PBM.
