Red Cross Pharmacy

As many of you may know, we have partnered with NimbleRx to give a better avenue of refilling prescriptions, checking out and communicating with our staff. And with all new partnerships there are usually a few quirks that need to be worked out, the most common issue we are having is that when a text is sent out to a customer that says their prescription is ready, it actually means we have received it and are currently processing it. It may be up to an hour or two before it is actually filled and ready for pick up, especially on busy days. Unfortunately there is no way to reword the text at this time and we are currently in contact with Nimble on how to fix this issue. We apologize for any inconvenience.

After sixteen incredible years, the time has come to say a happy (but bittersweet!) farewell to our amazing pharmacy technician, Carolyn Berg, who is moving out of town to be closer with her family!

Your dedication, hard work, and expertise have been the backbone of our pharmacy. You showed incredible care for our patients and solved countless problems and always did it with a witty comment and smile. We are so grateful for the countless lives you’ve touched and the immense knowledge you’ve shared with all of us.

You will be greatly missed! Wishing you nothing but happiness and relaxation in this next chapter. Cheers to you!

🚨 BadRx Exposed 🚨

I’ve told my patients this over and over: GoodRx isn’t paying us below cost… they’re not paying us at all.

Here’s how it really works:
➡️ The patient pays GoodRx.
➡️ GoodRx claws back a fee.
➡️ The pharmacy is left with pennies—sometimes less than what it costs to buy the drug.

It’s not a discount.
It’s not a deal.
It’s a heist.

Independent pharmacies are being drained to prop up a billion-dollar coupon empire. It’s time we call it what it is: BadRx.

Independent pharmacy’s struggles all in one AI generated song! A Pharmacy in Utah made it! Pretty neat!

PBM Reform and Pharmacy Lobbying

02/20/2025

The future for pharmacy is looking bleak but theres still time for change!

There's a crime wave at CVS, but you're being lied to about who's behind it. The company is under-staffing stores, underpaying workers, and forcing pharmacis...

Highly recommend checking out the series! Really brings to light the shady dealings of the biggest player in the Healthcare industry.

ATTENTION!!! A Glenwood City customer brought this letter in that they received from their Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM). They are the companies that contract with your insurance company to process claims for us. This letter is prime example of Patient Steering. It’s what they do when they want to send you to their own pharmacies. While we may not be “preferred” in their network, we are still IN their network. If you get one of these letters, let your pharmacist know and they will talk to you about how we can help lower your drug costs through our Village Pharmacy Loyalty Plan. If you would like to see more of the dirty tactics that PBMs use to eliminate independent pharmacies, check out the new docuseries starting tomorrow on Amazon Prime called “Modern Medical Mafia”.
