PRESCRIPTION REFILLS AND APPOINTMENTS

At Home-LA care is individualized, clients working with medication management can be seen weekly to quarterly. Generally medication management clients are to be seen monthly when making changes and clients can be seen quarterly if stable and known to the provider.

Please book all appointments online within the timeframe discussed during your appointment. Generally you will get refills for medicines at the time of your session that will last you until your next appointment.

If you are running low and you do not have an appointment booked -please visit the website and book the next available appointment– we are available to accommodate clients within the next week even if it was with a different provider. To avoid needing to see a different provider we recommend making follow up appointments at the end of your session.

For controlled substances (such as sedatives or certain ADHD medicines), the DEA prohibits doctors from authorizing refills for more than 3 months. This means that if your last appointment was over 3 months ago, you cannot get a refill for these types of medications without a face-to-face appointment. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Routine monitoring of medicines is essential for us to provide you with excellent mental health care.

Refill authorizations generally take up to 48 HOURS.

For those who would like to schedule an ‘informational consultation’ appointments are 30 minutes or 60 minutes. Or feel free to call 424-877-1333, or email us at info@home-la.com for more information.
