Advise for transferring your prescription to Walmart
I have had many of the same experiences as others here. I wanted to post this so others would have the information. Originally, I was having my prescription delivered to my home (similar issues with delivery to the wrong address/going on vacation and ordered well ahead of time only to be told that I wouldn't get it in time because I didn't personally contact them, even though I had arranged it through my doctor). Anyway, now I have it delivered to Walmart pharmacy, which has been a better experience...at least on Walmart's end. One thing you need to know is that Gift Health or Lilly (I'm still confused about whose rules apply to whom), does not communicate with Walmart regarding dosage amounts - which is very odd to me, since Gift Health is the one that transfers the prescription to Walmart. I was getting concerned because I had not received the link to process my next prescription so I reached out and they told me they couldn't process it until I had a counseling session with them. They say it is because their records show that I'm jumping from 7.5 to 15 ml...which is not correct. I am going from 12.5 to 15 ml...and they could see that on their end, but it doesn't automatically show up because my order is through Walmart. But customer service said they could see that my last one was for 12.5 and that is what my doctor ordered. Also, I did receive "counseling" from the Walmart pharmacist. None of this sounds right or logical...but hands are tied until I get my "counseling". So if you are planning to transfer your order to Walmart and you don't see the link from Gift Health right away, don't wait the 72 hours like I did. Contact them right away so you don't run into this counseling issue.
