No, you are not required to use Walmart as your only pharmacy.
Humana Medicare Part D plans include over 50,000+ pharmacies in their pharmacy network.
However, if you are enrolled in the Humana Walmart Value Rx Plan (or Humana Premier Rx Plan), Walmart, Neighborhood Market Pharmacies, Sam’s Club and Humana Mail-Order are “Preferred Pharmacies” may have the lowest cost-sharing - and according to Humana, there are over 5,200 preferred
network pharmacies
across the country.
You can use other pharmacies in the Humana Pharmacy Network, but the cost-sharing amount may
be higher for drugs purchased outside of a preferred network pharmacy.
To find a Humana network pharmacy, please see:

As
noted by Humana:
"Humana has contracted with Walmart, Walmart Neighborhood Markets and
Sam's Club pharmacies to offer preferred cost sharing for this Part D
plan. While you can use other pharmacies in our network, preferred
cost-sharing pharmacies offer additional prescription savings to Humana
members."
Low-costing Tier 1 and Tier 2 drugs are also excluded from the Initial Deductible.
The 2024 Humana Walmart Value Rx Plan (PDP) plan has
a $545
Initial Deductible; however Tier 1 and 2 generics are excluded from the deductible (or a $0 deductible for Tier 1 and Tier 2 drugs).
This means that any Tier 1 or Tier 2 drug purchases you make will fall
receive immediate coverage and will not be subject to the $545 initial
deductible. However, your Tier 3, Tier 4, and Tier 5
prescription purchases are 100% your responsibility until you have met
$545 deductible--then your Part D plan coverage begins.
