Nebraska Total Care works in support of Nebraska communities devastated by flooding
OMAHA, Neb., March 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Nebraska Total Care, in conjunction with Gov. Pete Ricketts' declared state of emergency, is available to provide assistance to our members across the state of Nebraska affected by flooding.
Nebraska Total Care is helping to ensure that members who may lose, or have been evacuated from, their homes maintain access to essential health care services, prescription medications, critical benefit information, and related services to help them cope with grief, loss, stress, or trauma.
Prescription Information

Pharmacies have been alerted to automatically process early refill requests. For controlled substances, members may need to speak with the Nebraska Total Care pharmacy department.
