Prescription Refills. The Plan only provides Benefits for prescription refills when you have taken 75% of the medication from a retail pharmacy or 75% from home delivery, based on the dosage and day supply prescribed by your Provider. The Plan does not provide Benefits for refills exceeding the number specified by the Provider or for refills dispensed after one year from the date of original prescription order. Early refills are available for one refill of a prescription for eye drops if the following criteria are met: The Member requests the refill no earlier than the date on which 70% of the days of use authorized by the prescribing Provider have elapsed; the prescribing Provider indicated on the original prescription that a specific number of refills are authorized; the refill requested by the Member does not exceed the number of refills indicated on the original prescription; the prescription has not been refilled more than once during the period authorized by the prescribing Provider prior to the request for an early refill; and the prescription eye drops are a covered benefit under the Plan.
Prescription Refills. Prescriptions are filled during appointments for enough medication to last until the next recommended visit. If you miss an appointment and need a refill before your next appointment and your psychiatric provider determines that a refill is medically necessary, an “interim medication refill” will be charged. Patients prescribed controlled substances must be evaluated at least monthly for the first several months, and then at least every 3 months once stable. There are no early refills or new prescriptions for lost or stolen medication. Misrepresentation or misuse of controlled substances may be cause for discharge.

If you need a prescription refilled you will need to contact your pharmacy and request a refill request be sent to the office to be processed by the clinical staff and approved by the physician. Refill authorizations may take up to 48 hours to be completed. Please check the status of your medications with your pharmacy. If the medication you requested is not received by the pharmacy within the 48 hours timeframe please call the office.

Managed Care Managed care plans have various rules about how to begin treatment. If your plan requires a referral from your primary care physician, we must receive the referral prior to the first visit. Some plans require phone authorization before beginning treatment. If the required referral or authorization is not presented at the first visit, you may be required to reschedule your appointment.
Prescription Refills. If you have not been seen within the last 6 months, a follow up appointment will need to be scheduled to ensure proper treatment. Please contact your pharmacy for prescription refills.

Prescription Refills. NBC Providers will refill your medication upon your next visit; however, some medications may require insurance approval and a Prior Authorization to be submitted to your insurance company. I understand that I need to allow 7 business days before checking with the NBC staff for insurance approval. I understand that most medications require an appointment with a Provider before any refills can be authorized, and I am responsible to have booked an appointment before my medication runs out. I understand that any refill request will need 3 business days to be processed, provided there are no reasons to prevent the refill from being processed, such as lab work, consents, prior authorizations or an appointment. I understand in some cases, I may be required to do lab work or toxicology screen before any medication is refilled. Failure to do so may result in my medication not being refilled. I understand that if I am being prescribed a federally controlled substance, such medications cannot be refilled until I am physically present for the appointment. I am expected to plan accordingly to avoid running out of medications. I understand in the case of any stimulants or Benzodiazepine, an additional consent, contract and/or policy form will be provided for my signature. I understand NBC will not accept any pharmacy refill requests either by phone or fax. I must not depend on the pharmacy to send refill requests on my behalf. I understand it is my responsibility to manage my medications and plan accordingly. I understand NBC provides an easy access to request refills through my online patient portal. Patient initials:
Prescription Refills. Please contact your pharmacy directly for a prescription refill. The pharmacy will then contact us via fax requesting the prescription refill. Please allow 48 hrs for us to process refill requests. Refills for controlled medication require 3 business days. Contacting the pharmacy and then the office will not speed up this process, it only duplicates request and slows the refill process. The patient is responsible for advising the pharmacy of their preference of using name brand or generic prescriptions. FCIM does not have any control over pharmaceutical tiered pricing. **PRESCRIPTION REFILLS ARE NOT EMERGENCIES**. Our on call physician will not process refill requests until the next business day.
