A specialty medication is a medication used to treat rare or complex diseases and requires close clinical monitoring and patient education. Usually filled by a specialty pharmacy, specialty medications often require special handling, storage and administration. These medications are often high cost and require a prior authorization from your insurance company.
Brown University Health Pharmacy’s program is designed specifically for each patient, their disease and their specialty medication. Our program provides:
All patients who have a specialty medication filled at Brown University Health Pharmacy will automatically be enrolled in the Specialty Drug Patient Management Program. You have the right to decline participation, revoke consent or disenroll at any time, simply by calling us to opt-out. No matter what you decide, Brown University Health Pharmacy will still fill your prescriptions and provide you with all our standard patient services, including free delivery. If we cannot fill your prescription because we are excluded from acquiring the specialty medication you need, we will help you find a pharmacy that can fill your prescription or plan.
If you choose to participate, you will be contacted periodically by phone and/or meet with a clinical pharmacist to evaluate your clinical progress and answer any questions you may have. Customized follow-up assessments will help you receive your refills on schedule. We will contact your doctor regarding any urgent/nonurgent medical issues and/or general insurance issues.
Please call us if you need assistance or have any medication related questions at 401-444-9909.
