Faxing to Schnucks — FAQ
Include the identifiers staff use to match an order: the patient's name, date of birth, and the drug. Direct the cover sheet to the correct Schnucks location and include a number staff can call. That routing detail is what lets Schnucks reconnect the order if the pages separate. A missing date of birth is the usual reason a fax sits in a queue at Schnucks.
Schnucks can receive a fax at any hour, but the store's pharmacy counter fills orders during posted hours. The pharmacy processes faxes during the hours it is staffed. Send time-sensitive orders early in the day so they are worked in time. Flag anything time-sensitive on the cover sheet so it is not treated as routine.
Yes — the concern is the tool you use, not the act of faxing. A patient's name, date of birth, and medications are protected health information, so a free app or a shared office machine is the wrong channel. Send FAX Mail's flat plans start at $12.99/month with a 7-day free trial, and every page to Schnucks travels encrypted. The safeguard is the service you use, not the act of faxing.
The current line comes from the location filling the order, since store numbers vary. Check the store's refill-request cover sheet, where the pharmacy fax is usually printed. That one verification keeps a patient's prescription out of the wrong queue. The pharmacy that receives the fax is the authority on its own number.
Transfers and refills are accepted by fax, routed to the specific location. Send the prescriber's response and any dosage change together. Address the cover sheet to the exact store so it is not misrouted. Name the receiving pharmacy on the cover sheet so it is not misrouted. It is a small step that saves a follow-up call later.
