Getting Your Medicine
Filling a Prescription
When we start a new prescription for you, we work closely with your provider and insurance company to fill your prescription. Many of the medicines we handle require special approval from your insurance company. This can take several days. Once we get approval, we will get in touch with you and ask where you would like your medicine delivered OR if you would like to pick it up in person from JMM Pharmacy. At this time, you can also ask your pharmacist any questions you have about your medicines.
Getting Refills
We will try to contact you several days before you run out of medicine to find out if you need more. We will ask you when you would like to receive your medicine, and make sure everything is going well with your treatment. You can also ask our pharmacist any questions you have about your medicine. We will make every effort to fill your prescriptions during the same day the prescription or refill request is received. However, refill requests submitted after 12:00 PM CST will not be ready for pickup or shipment until the following business day at the earliest.
Getting Medicine Somewhere Else
If our pharmacy can no longer fill your medicine, a pharmacist will transfer your prescription to another pharmacy. You can also contact our program staff at any time to have your prescription transferred to another pharmacy. We will give the new pharmacy the information they need to handle your order. We will also give you the name and phone number of the new pharmacy. After that, we will keep track of your order until the new pharmacy takes over.
Shipping to Your Home
We will do our best to deliver your medicine somewhere convenient for you. If you would rather pick up your medicine, we can keep it for you at our Jackson (JMM) Medical Mall Pharmacy.
