The Quality You Expect

Our clinical pharmacists are part of your care team, working with your doctor and reviewing your medical record directly. That ensures your prescriptions are filled safely and accurately.

Why choose our pharmacies?

When you finish your care at UI Hospitals & Clinics in Iowa City, North Dodge in Iowa City, Iowa River Landing in Coralville, or River Crossing in Riverside, you can fill your prescription before you leave and save yourself another stop.

If you’re being discharged from a hospital stay, ask about our Meds to Beds program. For many hospital rooms, we can have prescriptions and over-the-counter medications for home use delivered right to your room before you leave.

When you get a prescription filled at one of our pharmacies, we can deliver your refills to you at no extra cost. Here's how to sign up.

When it’s time for a refill, you can go online to MyChart and have your refill ready to pick up at one of our pharmacies or delivered to your home. You can also use your phone to refill your prescription.

When you’ve gone through all your refills and it’s time to renew a prescription, you can use your secure MyChart email to request a renewal, directly from your physician and pharmacist.

Our pharmacists are available at any time to privately discuss your medications with you and to help make sure you’re getting the most from your prescription. Just call any of our pharmacies or send us a secure message with MyChart.

Our team can help answer your questions about insurance and payments.

We process your medication needs through your health insurance to see that you’re getting the most from your prescription coverage.

Our pharmacists and social workers can help connect you with our Medication Assistance Center to make sure you can afford the medicine you need. We can help qualified patients and their families acquire medications through patient assistance programs.

One of the services that sets UI Health Care Pharmacy Services apart from other pharmacies is our assistance when it comes to your insurance coverage.

  • We will talk to your insurance company if they require more information prior to filling your prescription.
  • We review your coverage to explain what is paid by your insurer and what may need to be paid by you.
  • We review your benefits and look at all possible options to help with the cost of expensive medications.

If you have questions about the cost of your medications and your insurance coverage, contact us directly by phone at 1-319-353-7516.
