Get the Best Results from Your Treatment with These Underrated BioScript Pharmacy Benefits
By the time patients arrive at BioScript Pharmacy for their first prescription, they’ve often endured years of symptoms, stress, doctor visits and testing. They’re looking for relief—and we take that responsibility seriously. Our pharmacists know that every dose matters, which is why we take a team-based approach to gain a holistic view of your treatment plan, reduce risks and help you achieve the best possible results.
If you’re a patient or a family member choosing a specialty care provider, here’s how BioScript Pharmacy can support you on your treatment journey.
1. Faster access to treatment
When it comes to specialty drug treatment, starting sooner can make a difference.
"We know that navigating your healthcare journey can be overwhelming, so we focus on removing barriers that could delay your treatment—whether it’s securing insurance coverage or delivering to remote areas,” says Ashley Stepaniuk, BioScript Pharmacy Manager, Manitoba.
Insurance coverage is a common challenge for many patients, but our pharmacy team can make the process easier. We handle the paperwork and coordinate with your healthcare providers to prevent coverage issues from delaying your dose. If there’s a lapse in your coverage, we may even be able to secure a compassionate dose to ensure your treatment is uninterrupted.
We also help you stay on track by:
- Monitoring your dose schedule and refill dates
- Proactively requesting refills from your healthcare team
- Delivering your prescription straight to your clinic or home from any of our 14 pharmacies across Canada
2. Ensuring the integrity of your medication
Specialty medications are high-cost treatments that require precise handling to maintain their effectiveness. At BioScript Pharmacy, we use specialized equipment and technology, along with advanced training to ensure your medication stays at the right temperature—even during delivery.
"Our pharmacy follows strict packaging protocols to protect the stability of your medication in transit, whether it’s being sent to your home, clinic, or doctor’s office,” says Nora Kovitch, Pharmacy Manager, Saskatchewan.
At BioScript, we ensure your medication is always in stock, so you never have to wait or stress about placing an order in advance.
3. Personalized support
Many people think pharmacists only provide guidance when starting a new medication—but at BioScript, we’re with you every step of the way.
"We care about your overall health,” says Ashley. “We can answer your questions when you’re ill, support you through life changes, provide guidance on routine or travel vaccines, and work with you to optimize your therapy’s dose and interval.”
Our pharmacy teams know your treatment inside and out and can offer you confidential counseling tailored to your individual needs. Whether you’re heading off to university or preparing for pregnancy, our pharmacists can help adjust your treatment plan to fit your changing lifestyle. We check in regularly to monitor your progress, assess side effects, and develop strategies to help you to stay on track.
Over time, we get to know our patients by name, building strong, supportive relationships throughout their healthcare journey.
