Benefit Management

Pharmacy Providers of Oklahoma, Inc. (PPOk) was organized in 1985 to provide efficient, effective, cost controlled administration of managed care prescription drug programs.

Pharmacy Providers of Oklahoma is committed to cost containment strategies and information management. Known for its superior level of service, PPOk is committed to providing administrative services necessary to meet desired levels of program benefit while controlling the overall program cost.

Through its member pharmacies, personal pharmacy service of the highest quality is provided to the patients they serve. The PPOk network includes more than 650 pharmacy members in the state of Oklahoma. PPOk also has an extended national provider network with more than 15,000 pharmacies which includes many independents and chain pharmacies.

Because pharmacies can submit POS claims 24 hours a day, seven days a week, our customers can develop complex prescription drug benefit plans that can save money while improving the quality of service and care to their members.

PPOk developed the first totally paperless electronic claims processing system in 1989 for a statewide client in Oklahoma. PPOk continues to be a leading innovator in management and cost containment strategies such as:
