  • Automated:
    You may select to Auto-Refill certain medications by simply checking the box next to your prescription order. You will then be sent an email when the order is going to be processed.

  • By Web:
    You may visit us at http://pharmacy.bioscrip.com and click on Refill Prescription, located on the left side of the page. There are three tabs: Ready to Order, In Progress, and Expired. If your prescription has been processed and has refills on it, it will be under the Ready to Order tab.
    If your prescription has no more refills, it will be listed under the Expired tab. This prescription must then be re-ordered and a new prescription will need to be obtained from your physician. You can select the expired prescription and we will contact the doctor for a renewal. If your doctor has changed, or the medication strength or dosing directions/quantity has changed, please place an order for a new prescription.
  • By mail:
    You or your doctor may mail us your paper prescription; however, you must first order it online and specify that the prescription will be mailed to us. There is also the option for your physician to fax us the prescription, or we will be happy to call your physician and request the order.
How much will my prescription cost?
  • Your pricing will vary depending on your insurance benefit. You can call the Member Services or Pharmacy Help Desk phone numbers on your prescription card to get the most current information. Please note that drug pricing can change on a daily basis. A final determination of your co-pay cannot be made until your claim is processed.
  • You may also place an order online. During the order process, you will be asked to select whether you want us to fill the prescription immediately or to email you when the copay information is available. If you select to be emailed, you will need to replace the order for the prescription when you are ready for us to ship the medication to you.
  • This cost may also vary depending on the quantity of medication. Your prescription will be filled for the amount of medication that the physician prescribes. Be sure to advise your physician to prescribe for a 90-day supply (days allowed may vary by the plan). BioScrip will adjust the prescription to align with your plan guidelines.
  • Payment must be received with each order.
How long does it take to receive my prescription?
  • Once BioScrip has received your order, you should allow up to 10-14 days for delivery of your shipment.
  • Our standard processing time at BioScrip Pharmacy is normally 2 to 5 days. This does not include delivery time. If processing tine is longer than 5 days, we will contact you to give notice of the delay.
  • Expedited shipping is available for an additional charge, and can be selected during the online ordering process.
  • We ship using FedEx (expedited deliveries) or FedEx SmartPost (standard delivery).

  • The medication you are looking for is out of refills or expired in our system. Please check the Expired tab listed in your Prescription History.
  • You are ordering for a husband/wife/sibling and HIPAA compliance has not been explained to the policyholder so the online history has not been updated.
