Can a physician bill me for refilling a prescription by phone?

Posted October 1, 2020

Yes. Refilling a prescription by phone is an uninsured service, therefore the physician can charge a patient directly for this service. In many cases, the physician will want to see the patient before refilling a prescription to ensure the prescription is still appropriate.
