Dear Pharmacy Provider,

Helios strives to ensure compliance with all state legislative and regulatory requirements related to the provision of pharmacy and ancillary services. Therefore, to receive information pursuant to, and compliant with these regulations, interested Tmesys network pharmacies should fill out the MAC Inquiry Form and Non-Disclosure Agreement that can be accessed via the Helios website and email the completed forms to MACresolution@helioscomp.com.
