What is the process for a new patient referral?

As soon as we receive the referral via fax, Escribe, or verbal authorization, our staff will process that prescription.

Once we verify your patients insurance online and we learn that a prior authorization (PA) is required our pharmacy will contact you right away (less than 3 hours) via fax or phone call. When allowed by the insurance company we will initiate and manage the PA process for you. We have a built in interface system that will send your office the exact PA form that is required for your patient. Our system will pick out exact form based on the patient’s insurance, drug needed and type of authorization needed, including getting the appropriate forms that need to be submitted. We will fill out as much as the forms demographics and clinical information that we have available before we fax it back to your office. We will also give you the 800-phone number for the PA line in case your office is required to contact the patients insurance company directly. Once the PA form is filled out and signed your office either fax the forms to the insurance company or to our pharmacy. The insurance company should contact your office within 48 hours of receiving the completed PA form to inform you if your patient’s medication has been approved, denied, or if they need more information. 

Will you manage the prior authorization process for me?

We will inform your office when a pre authorization is needed, we will send you the appropriate form. We will also call your office if we do not hear from you within the stated approval time frame. So, for example if your office initiated a pre authorization for X Insurance on Monday, if we do not hear from your office by Thursday, we will follow up with you.

Specialty Pharmacy FAQ

Pharmacy FAQs

Get helpful information about our services, medications, and delivery options.

What is a Specialty Pharmacy?

A specialty pharmacy provides medications for patients with chronic and complex diagnosis and rare diseases. Most of the medications are high cost and need more personalized care. The medications are oral, injectables or infusions.

What is the difference between a specialty pharmacy and a retail/ mail order pharmacy?

Specialty pharmacies handle medications that are considered the most complex and often require special handling. We have specially trained Pharmacists on call 24/7 for your assistance. Retail/ Mail order pharmacies handle medications that are considered maintained and are not complex. You take these medications on a daily, weekly, monthly basis and they don’t need special handling. These medications are normally low cost and you normally have to go to the store to pick them up.
