Caregiver

A paid or unpaid person who helps with any needs required by someone who can’t meet his/her own needs. This covers a broad spectrum of needs, ranging from daily living tasks (eating, bathing, dressing) to helping with tasks on an as-needed basis (such as running errands). If you want a caregiver to be able to manage your medicines and your Express Scripts online account, you must make him or her a “designated caregiver” using the Add a Caregiver page in the Accounts menu. If you are a caregiver and hold a person’s power of attorney (POA), your client still must designate you as a caregiver using the Add a Caregiver page in the Accounts menu.
