Medication Recheck & Refill Policy
Dear Families,
To ensure safe and uninterrupted care, patients who are prescribed medications requiring routine follow-up visits every 2–3 months must have their medication recheck appointments scheduled in advance before their medication supply runs out.
This policy applies especially to medications such as:
• Controlled substances
• SSRI medications
• Other medications requiring regular monitoring
Please check your records to confirm that your child’s follow-up appointment is booked prior to needing a refill. If an appointment is not scheduled and completed on time, there may be a lapse in prescription coverage.
For patient safety, providers cannot continue prescribing these medications without seeing the patient in the office for the required medication recheck.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us provide safe and consistent care for your child. ... See MoreSee Less
