At its meeting on Feb. 17, 2023, the TRS Board of Trustees (Board) selected
Express Scripts (ESI) to be the new Pharmacy Benefits Manager (PBM) for all TRS health plans.
Why is TRS Switching Its Pharmacy Administrator?
TRS is dedicated to offering reliable benefits for the most competitive prices.
One way we do this is through regularly reevaluating our benefits contracts. This ensures we get the
best pricing and services for our members and employers. Industry-leading companies come to us with competitive proposals.
ESI had the highest ranking based on financial and operational strength.
The new contract will generate savings to help sustain health care benefits for participants and employers.
CVS Caremark will serve TRS-ActiveCare through Aug. 31, 2023, and TRS-Care through Dec. 31, 2023. They've worked for TRS health plan participants and employers for close to a decade, and we thank them for their services, expertise, and partnership.
