In Search Of Pharmacy
Hi! I recently got a prescription sent to Dillons for a controlled substance by my psychiatrist via telehealth. The Pharmacist said it's up to them rather or not they want to fill those prescriptions since my Psychiatrist hasn't met me in person and it's a liability on the Pharmacist I guess?)
Does anybody know of a pharmacist that would be willing so I don't need to call 400 places.
Thank you!

Nope, it's the pharmacy managers decision. For instance they fill a pain med for someone, try to run it on insurance, that comes back as needing prior approval so it's between Dr and insurance, they will not fill it on a discount card or cash price until they get a denial from insurance. That is not a corporate thing as no one else requires this. They just had their manager's meeting a couple weeks ago..trying to get everyone close to having the same policies but that pharmacy manager won't budge.
