BCBSNM Specialty Pharmacy Program     
BCBSNM offers several programs that help deliver specialty pharmaceuticals directly to providers or our members who are undergoing treatment for a complex, chronic illness. Specialty drugs refers to prescription drugs that:

  • Are unique, high-cost medications that may be given by any route of administration;
  • Benefit a limited patient population; and
  • Typically require complex dispensing technique, delivery procedures, and/or patient education and support.

Due to special storage requirements and high cost, specialty medications may not be routinely stocked by physicians’ offices or readily available at local pharmacies. To better service our members and providers, BCBSNM has contracted with specialty pharmacy services for those specialty medications. Clinical support for those patients going through treatment for these complex conditions is also available to help provide the best possible outcome.

Visit our website for a list of specialty drugs available under the program.
