Tobacco Cessation
In this article, we cover Saia's support of those trying to quit using tobacco by providing prescription medical benefit coverage.
Saia supports a safe, healthy, tobacco-free environment for all employees. Quitting tobacco is not easy and we strongly support your efforts in this endeavor. To show our commitment, Saia provides prescription medical benefit coverage for prescription smoking-cessatlon medications like Zyban and Wellbutrin.
The medical community recommends a four-month program to quit smoking. With this in mind, these prescriptions will be covered for four months at a $15 retail copay per month. These are prescription medications, so you must talk to your doctor to make sure you are a candidate for them. Your usual copay is required for the doctor's visit.
For further information on prescriptions or becoming tobacco-free, please contact UnitedHealthcare at www.myuhc.com or call 1-877-571-9867.
