Rheumatology

Rheumatology prescriptions in Hicksville, NY

Rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and related conditions often call for long-term, high-cost therapy. We coordinate prior authorizations and renewals with your rheumatologist’s office, help eligible commercially insured patients enroll in manufacturer savings programs, and deliver refrigerated medications to your door.

  • Folic acid and supportive medications

Coverage and prior authorization

Biologics typically require prior authorization and periodic re-authorization, and plans increasingly prefer biosimilars. We keep your prescriber informed about plan formulary changes and request renewals before approvals expire.

Self-injectables are stored and delivered at the temperature the manufacturer requires. Our pharmacists can explain injection technique and sharps disposal.

Questions

My plan switched my biologic to a biosimilar. Is that allowed?

Plans can change preferred products. Whether a pharmacy can substitute depends on FDA interchangeability and New York substitution rules. We’ll explain your options and loop in your rheumatologist.

How are refrigerated medications delivered?

Refrigerated medications travel in temperature-controlled packaging, and we confirm a delivery time with you first so they go straight into your refrigerator.

Working with your prescriber

How we work with your rheumatology office

  1. We read the rejection

    We find out why the plan didn’t pay: a prior authorization, step therapy, a quantity limit or a drug that isn’t on the formulary.

  2. We send the plan’s criteria

    Your prescriber decides whether to submit a request and provides the clinical information the plan asks for.

  3. We follow it through

    We check the status with your plan and keep you updated until there’s a decision.

  4. We fill and deliver

    Once it’s approved, we fill your prescription and deliver it, or have it ready for pickup in Hicksville.
