Question: What laws protect my health and privacy?
Answer:AdventHealth Rx Plus Pharmacy follows your state laws to ensure we safely and confidently fill your prescription. These include, but are not limited to, the following regulations:
More InfoFaxed Prescriptions
We cannot accept faxed prescriptions for schedule 2 controlled medications. The original written prescription must be mailed to us.
Valid Dates
Prescriptions for controlled substances are only valid for six months from the date the prescription was written, even if there are refills remaining.
Returned Medication
Medications cannot be returned to the pharmacy unless the entire package has not been opened.
Generic Medication
In the state of Florida, it is the law that a pharmacy must dispense a generic drug in place of a brand-name drug, whenever one is available. This law is in place to ensure that the customer or health plan is paying for the least expensive option.
If a physician decides that they would prefer that a pharmacy dispense a brand-name drug instead of the available generic one, “medically necessary” must be written on the prescription. The physician cannot write “dispense brand,” “no substitution,” “DAW,” or “dispense as written.” The pharmacy, by law, is still required to dispense the generic drug unless “medically necessary” is included on the prescription.
