Your regular office visit copay, coinsurance, or deductible applies.
• Please note that if you’re a Kaiser Permanente Medicare member, you can’t refill any existing prescriptions at a CVS pharmacy.

If you’re not a Kaiser Permanente member:

• You can fill your prescriptions at the CVS pharmacy located in Target if you have a health plan that’s accepted by CVS pharmacies.

If you don’t have health coverage:

• You can pay out of pocket for your prescription at the CVS pharmacy in Target.
