Patients treated at DeWeese Health Center are not required to use the pharmacy at the DeWeese Health Center.

If we are unable to send pharmacy charges to your prescription insurance company, payment options are VISA, MasterCard, Discover, or billing your Student Account. Your prescription paperwork provided by the pharmacist should be saved for you to submit to your prescription insurance carrier for reimbursement.


How to fill a prescription:

  • Have your healthcare provider call in your prescription to the pharmacy so it can be filled when you arrive at the pharmacy.
  • At this time we can process third-party prescriptions for Caremark and the Student Health Insurance Plan. Please remember to bring your card with you to the pharmacy.
  • To transfer a prescription from another pharmacy in the U.S., call or visit the pharmacy with your medication bottle.
  • Many medications are less expensive at our pharmacy due to state contracts therefore the pharmacist may provide a quote for medications prior to their filling.
