The Privacy Authorization allows CVS Pharmacy® to use your protected health information, such as the number of prescriptions you have filled, so that we can count your credits for purposes of giving you your reward.
A separate authorization is necessary for each person who opts in to earn rewards at the pharmacy. Adults 16 years and older must sign individually; parents or guardians can sign for children under 16.
No medical information about your health or prescriptions is shared at any time in connection with or to administer the benefit. When you first opt in, your ExtraCare® membership may be updated with the contact information in your pharmacy record (including your full name, address, email and phone number) so that we can communicate with you about rewards at the pharmacy, related new programs and offers.
No. Household members sharing the same ExtraCare® card will only be able to see the membership status for those who have joined, how many credits and rewards have been earned, and how they were earned. Specific medication information will not be visible.
CVS Pharmacy® will use the prescription number, store number, full date of birth and ExtraCare® card number to properly match online users with ExtraCare membership to ensure that earnings and rewards are recorded for the correct person.
Most signed authorizations do not expire. You'll only need to sign once at enrollment to start rewards at the pharmacy through your ExtraCare® membership.
However, members living in California must sign the Privacy Authorization every five years.
Canceling your Privacy Authorization will automatically opt you out of earning rewards at the pharmacy, but you'll still receive all other ExtraCare® benefits.
No. The Privacy Authorization you signed will remain in effect for 5 years from the date it was signed. You'll continue to earn under the ExtraCare Pharmacy & Health Rewards program until your Privacy Authorization expires. At that point, you'll need to sign again to stay in the program and keep earning.
How to join
