Changes Regarding
Prescription Medication Effective
February 1, the health center will accept payment for all prescription
medication by One Card only, and cash and checks will not be accepted
for these payments. This change affects the purchase of medication

ordered through the health center. As of January 1, Louis and
Clark Pharmacy began to add an additional charge of $1.30 to all
prescription fees that are not paid by Medicaid or Medicare. This
increase is the result of changes in Massachusetts law. Medication

9 am-4:15 pm; Saturday and Sunday, 2 pm4:15 pm. Medications
will not be dispensed outside of these times unless arrangements
have been made through the health services receptionist.
