Script Renewal Requests
To request a prescription renewal please complete the Script Request Form below.
Requests are invoiced a fee of $40 or, if urgent, $75 and payment is required to progress the Request.
Advise your child’s current height, weight and blood pressure, unless your doctor does not require this.
An appointment may also be required.
Most associated providers are happy to issue prescriptions without an appointment if the medication plan is stable and they have reviewed your child in a face-to-face appointment within the last 6 months. They may require more frequent reviews of your child’s progress, especially if the medication plan is still being adjusted or evaluated, or if there are other clinical matters or issues.
The Request Fee
Fees are charged by the associated paediatricians for the following requests for processing prescription renewals or prescription repeat checks.
The Script Request Fee will be $40 for any Request for one or more medications, and (if applicable) an additional fee of
$35 if urgently requested (within 5 business days or your provider’s next clinic, whichever is the latter).
$20 if you also request a Regulation 49 authority for advance dispensing of all repeats.
$15 if, instead of an eScript, you request a paper script to be posted or faxed.
$35 if you require additional administrative work, time, and communications for your Request. Please allow us to manage your request as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible by carefully reading the provided information, submitting the form, and working with us through our streamlined procedure.
Your provider, at their discretion, may consider the Request and provide the script without an appointment or may require an appointment to do so.
Stimulant Medications shortage?
If you are not able to fill your script due to a current current shortage, please go here for more information and a form to request an alternative medication.
The Script Request Form-please always use this to request a prescription renewal.
Please complete one Script Renewal Request Form below for each script requested.
Indicate how many scripts you will be requesting (i.e. how many Request Forms you will be submitting) as part of your Request.
The fee for your Script Renewal Request is billed on the assumption that the administrative team can process all your forms together, and the doctor can open your child's file and complete all script renewal requests at once. If, later, a second process is required, and the doctor needs to reopen the file to review and provide further script renewals, the additional work will be billed as a new, unrelated Script Request.
