What is a Medication Transfer?
A Medication transfer is when you decide to move your prescriptions from one pharmacy to another. Simply put, it means you are switching to a new pharmacy.
Reasons to Switch Pharmacies
1. Location
If you have moved out of state, you’ll need to transfer prescriptions to another pharmacy in your new state. If the location of your current pharmacy is an inconvenience to your life, you may also want to switch.
2. Pricing
Prescriptions can be extremely expensive, and newer pharmacies are recognizing this. These new pharmacies are offering discounts, coupons, and copay options that help you save on medication.
3. Personalization
Big name pharmacies do not offer any sort of personal component, which is something that many individuals are now looking for when it comes to their medications. Smaller pharmacies work to create prescriptions that are specific to the patient; and others have extra offerings including: free prescription deliveries, shorter wait times, and
preventative care options.
