Can I request a particular doctor?

You cannot request a particular doctor. Campus Rx is designed to support your relationship with your existing doctor. Therefore, it is not a means of establishing an exclusive relationship with one of our doctors. Please know that all Campus Rx doctors are highly qualified and go through rigorous training and credentialing. We have one of the largest physician networks of telehealth providers who are board-certified, state-licensed doctors.

Can I get a prescription?

The best treatment for you will be determined by your treating physician, therefore, not all encounters will result in prescriptions being written. Campus Rx doctors do not issue prescriptions for substances controlled by the DEA (narcotics or stimulants) and/or certain other drugs which may be harmful because of their potential for abuse. These include, but are not limited to, antidepressant and anxiety medications (Prozac, Cymbalta, Xanax), narcotics (Norco – hydrocodone, Percocet – oxycodone), medications for ADD/ADHD (Ritalin, Adderal) and other non-therapeutic drugs (Viagra, Cialis).

How are prescriptions sent to the pharmacy?

Campus Rx does not dispense prescription drugs. If the doctor prescribes medication, it is submitted electronically or by phone to the pharmacy of your choice.

Is my electronic health record kept private?

Health records are kept totally private and we employ robust encryption methods to protect your personal information. You determine who can see the information in your record.

Can I be turned down for a pre-existing condition?
