PharmCo to Offer Emergency Prescriptions to Residents in
Louisiana Flood Zone
MIAMI, FL -- August 25, 2016 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire --
Progressive Care Inc. (OTC
PINK: RXMD), through its subsidiary Pharmco LLC, a South
Florida health services organization and provider of prescription
pharmaceuticals specializing in health practice risk management,
compounded medications, the sale of anti-retroviral medications and
related medication therapy management, and the supply of
prescription medications to long term care facilities, has begun
offering emergency prescription services to Louisiana Flood Zone
residents.
On August 19, 2016, PharmCo, with the help of Express Scripts,
is teaming up with the Federal Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) to provide a new Emergency Prescription Assistance
Program (EPAP) in response to the flooding in Louisiana. PharmCo is
currently capable of adjudicating claims for prescription drugs,
vaccines, and specific durable medical equipment (DME) for patients
impacted by the disaster.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
If an uninsured patient from the disaster area visits Pharmco
with a prescription or prescription bottle to obtain medication
and/or durable medical equipment, the pharmacy will immediately
create an eligibility file and process the claim. Once the claim is
processed, PharmCo will dispense the medication and/or the
equipment to the patient. DME covered under this program are
Canes, Crutches, Walkers, and Wheelchairs. Under this program there
are no limitations to what or how many medications a patient can
receive.
When a disaster like this happens, it affects all of us, stated
S. Parikh Mars, CEO. We are happy to provide assistance and support
to the State of Louisiana and any of its residents affected by the
flood.
