Get your prescriptions filled even in an emergency

9/17/2022

0 Comments

 
Any pharmacy in Oregon can make an emergency prescription refill for a person who had to leave an area affected by a declared disaster.
  • It is preferred, and in some cases perhaps easier, to use the same company that filled the original prescription.
  • If the pharmacist believes the medicine is needed to maintain the patient’s health or to continue established treatment, the pharmacist can make a refill.
  • The emergency refill may be for no more than a 30-day supply.
  • Go to any pharmacy in Oregon, preferably one from the same company as the original fill and request an emergency 30-day refill.
  • A pharmacy will bill insurance as normal if you have insurance. There still may be an associated co-pay.
  • Reach out to their insurance company and work with your pharmacy to get the medications refilled and the costs covered. Call the state’s consumer advocates at 888-877-4894 if there are any issues.
  • If you don’t have insurance or have other questions about accessing emergency refills, Oregon Health Authority might be able to help. E-mail the Oregon Health Authority’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program with the link below.
