Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I enroll in the Meds-to-Beds Program?
A: If you are admitted into the hospital you are automatically enrolled into the program. You may also choose to opt out. A transition specialist will meet with you and provide you with more information during your stay and at discharge.

Q: What if I do not have my insurance information during this visit?
A: With your permission, we will call your current pharmacy and ask for your insurance information. Your family member can also bring it from your home.

Q: Can my discharge medications be added to my hospital bill?
A: Meds-to-Beds prescription filling is an outpatient pharmacy service and cannot be added to your hospital bill. Co-pays are collected when your Meds-to-Beds service is provided.

Q: What type of payments can I use for this program?
A: Harris Health’s Meds-to-Beds Program accepts personal checks, credit and debit cards. Cash is not accepted at this time.

Q: How will I be informed when my prescriptions are ready?

To make it easy for you, use MyHealth to order your refill and pay your copay, if necessary. Our transition specialist will enroll you and show you how to use MyHealth before you leave the hospital.
