Filling a prescription can be time-consuming, but with MSU HealthTeam Pharmacies the process can become a lot easier. MSU HealthTeam Pharmacies include the Olin Health Center Pharmacy and the Clinical Center Pharmacy, both located on MSU’s campus. Each pharmacy offers free on-campus prescription pick-up and delivery, free patient consultation, prescription transfer service, patient medical expense reports and a wide selection of prescription and over-the-counter products. Also, each pharmacy offers a 90-day supply of prescriptions unlike other non-mail order prescription pharmacies.
Save time and money with prescription deliveries straight to your office at MSU.
The Pharmacy Delivery Service provided by the MSU HealthTeam Pharmacies, will pick up your prescription from your office on campus, fill it and deliver it within two business days. The Delivery Service is available Monday through Friday and accepts checks, cash, Visa, Discover or MasterCard for payment.
New prescriptions to be filled must be brought to Olin or the Clinical Center or called or faxed in by a doctor’s office. To transfer a prescription, the prescription bottle or package can be brought to either pharmacy. Prescription transfers can also be made over the phone by calling Olin or the Clinical Center with the name and phone number of the pharmacy where the prescription was last filled, the prescription number and the name of the medication. The MSU Pharmacy staff will then transfer and refill your prescription. Refills can be called in 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
In addition to the MSU HealthTeam Pharmacies, Caremark which administers the prescription coverage for MSU faculty and staff, also offers a mail-order service.
“Caremark is our prescription coverage and the company who administers our prescription plan. It is also considered CVS Pharmacy. However, with the Caremark Prescription coverage, employees are not limited to use CVS pharmacies,” said Benefits Representative Jennifer Hensley. “Caremark mail orders are basically the same in regard to getting the 90-day supply and saving money on co-pays. Further, the prescription is delivered right to your home.”
For the Olin Pharmacy and the Clinical Center Pharmacy hours and locations, visit the HealthTeam Pharmacy website. For more information on Caremark, visit their website at caremark.com.
