Some counties hold household hazardous waste collection days, where prescription and over-the-counter drugs are accepted at a central location for proper disposal. 2ND CHOICE: HOUSEHOLD DISPOSAL STEPS Source: EPA, Drug Disposal Guidelines, Office of National Drug Control Policy, October 2009 We have a plan if a disaster occurs. Disasters include a fire to our facility, chemical spills, major weather events and evacuations. Our goal is to continue to service your needs. If there is a threat of disaster or severe weather, please contact us for any medications you need to make sure you have enough. Follow directions from the authorities in your area. We will use every resource available to continue to make sure we can serve you. While unlikely, there may be times where we cannot meet your needs because of an emergency. In these situations, you must use your local rescue or medical facility. If we cannot get your medication to you due to an emergency, we will transfer your medication to a local pharmacy of your choice. If we cannot reach you or you cannot reach the pharmacy, please listen to your local news for help. Please make sure we have an emergency contact number so that we can reach you. In the event of an emergency or disaster, remember the following: 1. Wash Your Hands: Handwashing is one of the most effective ways to halt the spread of illness. The best way to wash your hands is with water, soap, and friction by rubbing them together. It is recommended that you run the water, wet your hands, apply soap, rub them together for a minimum of 20 seconds, rinse them off, take a paper towel and turn off the faucet. Do not touch the faucet once done washing your hands as you will be just placing the germs back onto your hands. If in a public restroom, use a paper towel to open the door. Do not touch the door handle with your hands as you will be again potentially putting the germs back on your hands. 2. Stay Home If You Are Sick: If you feel that you are becoming sick, it is important to stay home to prevent spreading it to others. Those with a fever should wait at least 24 hours until after it goes away before they return to work. The same also goes for parents with sick children. Viruses spread quickly in schools, so do your part to prevent them from doing so. 3. Keep Your Home Clean: Infectious diseases can spread by touching something an infected person has come into contact with. Regularly clean household surfaces to help prevent the spread of infections in your household. Use hot soapy water or household cleaning products to disinfect surfaces regularly. Additionally, if someone has been sick, clean anything they came into contact with thoroughly to prevent them from getting sick again. Prescription cost will vary depending on your insurance. Because drug pricing can change daily, a final determination of your co-pay cost including deductibles or co-insurance cannot be made until your claim is processed. If your insurance company considers SMP Pharmacy an out of network pharmacy, an explanation of the medication cost will be provided in writing at the time of dispensing or if requested by patient. Cash price of the medication is also available upon request by calling the pharmacy at 855.255.5005. You may also call the Member Services phone number on your prescription insurance card to get the most current information. If you are unable to afford the out-of-pocket cost for your prescription, SMP Pharmacy will work to identify co-pay card assistance, patient assistant programs, or other support and/or charitable organizations. Visit the SMP Pharmacy’s website to learn about Patient Assistance. If you have Medicare Part D drug coverage, the cost of your prescription will change significantly as you meet your deductible and initial co-pay, progress through the “donut hole” and reach total out-of-pocket expense. Patient Care Coordinators can assist you in determining and understanding your options. Visit our website to learn more about these services.SMP PHARMACY: FERTILITY
