Workers' Compensation Members of Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool
RE: Progressive Medical, Inc has changed their name to Helios
Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool has used Progressive Medical, Inc. for
pharmacy benefits to all of the Risk Pool’s workers’ compensation members since 2010.
Progressive Medical, Inc has changed their name to Helios effective October 1, 2014.
As part of this name change, a new first fill card is needed to replace the previous first fill card
from Progressive Medical, Inc. A separate attachment to this email is this new Helios first fill
card. When an injured employee reports an injury, the member will need to include their name
in the employer section along with the injured worker’s name, date of accident and social
security number. The injured worker will need to present this card to the pharmacy when taking
their first prescription to get filled. Helios will be mailing a prescription card to the injured
employee to present to the pharmacy for future prescriptions. Please discontinue using the
Progressive Medical first fill card. The Risk Pool’s website also has this new card, as well as
the Workers’ Compensation Claims staff.
Using this first fill letter and the prescription cards will reduce costs of prescriptions below the
state fee schedule and lower the claims costs that directly impacts the member’s workers’
compensation claims experience. Using this pharmacy benefit management program has
lowered actual costs by $1.2 million dollars in the last 12 months.
If you have questions about this first fill card or pharmacy benefit management process, please
contact your respective claims specialist in the Workers’ Compensation Claims Department at
800 537-6655 or by email, WorkersCompensation@tmlirp.org.
Sincerely,
Mike Bratcher
Workers' Compensation Claims Manager
Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool
