Frequently Asked Questions

“IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COMPOUNDING PHARMACY AND A REGULAR PHARMACY?”

Yes! A compounding pharmacy specially prepares customized prescription medications for patients when a prescriber orders a unique medication formula.

“HOW ABOUT INSURANCE COVERAGE?”

Usually a pharmacy electronically bills for prescriptions through NDC (National Drug Code number) of the prescribed medication. However, compounded prescriptions do not have a recognized NDC. In order to bill your insurance an itemized claim has to be generated and submitted, showing each ingredient's NDC and often several other pieces of information- depending on the insurance company's requirements. Please allow sufficient time since this is a labor intensive process for each claim.

At the moment we are finalizing insurance billing set-up with most plans. However, whether your insurance pays for your compounded medication or not is still up to your insurance and in the event of a rejected claim we can supply you with a Universal Claim Form to submit to your insurance yourself. Reimbursement is not a guarantee. Please check with your insurance company regarding coverage. All other prescriptions (non-compounded prescriptions) will be able to be transmitted for billing electronically as a regular claim. We can bill all your prescription refills on going.

"I AM NOT ABLE TO COME IN WHEN YOU'RE OPEN”
