Can I get a prescription during my urgent care visit?

Medications are best refilled by your primary care provider; however, on occasion, we understand that you might need a refill urgently. We may provide a one-time refill, of a maximum of 30 days, for a prescription treating a chronic condition under the circumstances below, after a visit to assess your medical condition and assure that the medication is safe and appropriate and that no changes are needed.

1. The patient needs to be able to tell CloseKnit the name and dose of the medication.
2. The medication does not require prior authorization; CloseKnit urgent care cannot provide to your insurer the information your insurer requires for a prior authorization, that must come from the provider treating the condition.
3. No dosing changes are required.
4. No changes in the medication type or name are required, although CloseKnit will substitute a generic for a brand medication when appropriate.
