### 1/5 — Broken UI, Useless Phone System, Total Waste of Time

*2026-05-06*

If you value your time and sanity, do not use Carelon Rx. While the first few refills went smoothly, the system falls apart the moment a prescription expires.
* The Website: Shows "Auto Refill" is active, but there are no buttons to renew or manage the expired script. It’s a dead end.
* The Notifications: Non-existent. No email or text was sent to let me know I was out of refills.
* The Phone System: The automated service claimed my prescription number "did not exist" despite it being right on the bottle and the website.
* Customer Support: After 20 minutes of waiting, the representative had me re-verify every single piece of data (name, DOB, address, etc.) only to tell me they needed to transfer me to a different department to contact my doctor. That department then wanted a third round of verification.
I hit my limit at the 40-minute mark. This company is designed to waste your time. I’ll stick to my local pharmacist from now on.

### 3/5 — Bugggggy

*2025-11-16*

This is one of the buggiest apps I think I’ve ever used. Getting signed in was such a pain. Had to put the same information in multiple times. Just started to use it, so I’m not sure if the actual user experience will be equally as difficult, but first impressions, as they say…

### 1/5 — Never use or trust Carelon with your health!

*2024-02-22*

They really dropped the ball with me and created a medical emergency due to their poor system. Total garbage company.

### 2/5 — Slow

*2024-01-23*

This app is beyond slow! It takes me forever to log in and even then the lag time from page to page is unreal.

### 1/5 — spammers

*2023-01-24*

I constantly get text spam from different numbers saying they need to to me about insurance but without identifying themselves and just giving a number to call. turns out it’s this company.

### 1/5 — Don’t work

*2022-08-19*

Terrible app that requires setting up security questions that the app says something went wrong and call customer service. Do yourself a favor and use the main site.

### 4/5 — Useful for managing pharmacy benefits through IngenioRx

*2021-07-16*

They’ve added messages to redirect Anthem members to the Sydney app or Anthem website to help clear up the earlier issues with just getting a generic message.  Provides basic functions to manage prescriptions and under the IngenioRx system.

### 1/5 — Never seen the app work.

*2021-03-11*

I have never been able to sign into this app. Every time I try to register, it gives an error message  “ Looks like something isn’t working.   Give us some time to fix it.  Then try again “
I will try deleting and reinstalling.

* that did not work. It’s just a poorly written app with issues.

### 3/5 — This app is not universal to all types of Anthem plans

*2020-04-07*

In trying to track an Rx researched over the phone with Anthem’s pharmacy hotline and then submitted via IngenioRx fax number hit a snag with this app.

Following some underspecified/misconstrued advice from the Anthem phone rep I downloaded this IngenioRx app (even while already having Sidney app) and entered my health plan info to set up an account and thus be prepared to track this Rx delivery.  My plan number was ‘not found’ in the system and I was directed to call the helpline on the back of my card.  Didn’t see a specific IngenioRx number only the Anthem pharmacy number so googled IngenioRx customer service.  Spoke to a rep on the other end there who informed me in response to my questions that there was no IngenioRx app in existence! Insists that I should use Anthem’s Sydney app.  

At this point I’m starting to freak out thinking I’ve been using a fraudulent app and entering my info into some weird phishing abyss! I tell her that I have downloaded the app and if she can’t tell me about the conflicting observation that I have an IngenioRx app on my phone when she says there is no such thing then I want to speak to someone else.  She puts me on hold. 

After a couple minutes she comes back and tells me the app is specialized for a specific type of plan that is not mine.  Mystery solved.  But I would like to say - I don’t know why this confusion was necessary.  I think it’s helpful to point out that the confusion arose because I was given an IngenioRx fax number to use for the prescribing doctor’s office to refer to; this is rather than an Anthem or Sydney fax number. So, I think there’s a co-branding integration issue - Anthem, Sidney, IngenioRx.  TBH It’s kind of a lot to keep up with for little old me. Especially when using necessary verbal communications to navigate complex pharmacy benefits and the ins and outs of access. 

Please add some UX copy to the app itself and to your App Store entry that guides *unintended* plan holders to stick to the Sidney app. Would have saved enough time to make that worth your team’s while. I feel like I know because I have worked on a few healthcare apps—I realize there are rounds of customer experience approvals etc.  But I imagine this could be a relatively simple solve to actuate if you want to help patients down the line. 

Funnel people away and towards this app more thoughtfully.  The Apple App Store entry has no useful clues that I could find. So I had to go the high touch route and that was even confusing to the rep I spoke to because so far she’s been dealing with the plans that don’t use the IngenioRx app.

I also don’t think it hurts to point out that this design gaffe makes me feel some kind of customer class privilege mechanism is at play and that’s awkward - as if the Athem gold plan plus people have their own better, dedicated Rx app. 

Both situations with the first Anthem rep and the IngenioRx rep also suggest both IngenioRx and Anthem should rethink training for reps to reduce confusion because I want to be clear in that I don’t think it was either of their faults. 

Thank you for processing my feedback and I really hope it helps.

### 5/5 — Amazing
