FAQ:
How do you handle prescriptions that require a prior Authorization from
my insurance company?
- Our hospital staff will call your insurance company while you are at the
hospital to attempt to get approval for your medication or will ask your
physician to prescribe an equivalent alternative.
If my prescription has a refill, do I have to come back to the hospital
to get it filled?
- No, we would be happy to fill your prescriptions here. If you would like
to have your prescription transferred, have your pharmacy contact us.
Will I be notified of the cost of my medications?
- Yes, we will notify you of the cost before we fill the medication and bring
it to your room.
Can prescriptions be billed or added to my hospital bill?
- No, prescriptions filled by the bedside delivery program are considered
an outpatient pharmacy service and cannot be added to your inpatient hospital bill.
Do you accept my prescription insurance plan?
- We accept most prescription insurance plans. Prescriptions are directly
billed to your insurance providers. You are responsible for any co-payments
from your insurance coverage. Co-payments must be paid for when you receive
your prescription(s).
What if I forgot to bring my prescription insurance card to the hospital?
- Medical Plaza Pharmacy will gladly call your current pharmacy and obtain
prescription insurance information.
