    If a nonparticipating pharmacy is used or the prescription drug card is not used at a participating pharmacy, 100 percent of the retail charge must be paid when the prescription drug is purchased. A Prescription Drug Reimbursement Form must be submitted to Medco Health. Medco Health will reimburse the individual at 100 percent of the "average wholesale price" less the appropriate copayment, usually within 14-20 business days.
