Pharmacy Solutions for Seniors

We are a comprehensive pharmacy that can deliver prescription medications, IV medications, OTCs, hospice medications, and supplies to your community.

Community staff can provide you with a consent form or inform staff that you would like PNW to provide your pharmacy services. Services are available for ALL residents, including those not receiving med management. We deliver daily and on weekends when needed. Delivery is FREE.

PNW partners with all physicians and specialists and PNW will follow up with physicians regarding prescriptions and work collaboratively to ensure safety.

We accept most insurances including Medicare and Tricare. There are some plans that have “preferred networks” which may limit your pharmacy choices to receive medications at the lowest copay. We are not able to provide medications for those insured through Veterans Affairs. Nearly all OTC products are available and competitively priced. Statements will be sent monthly for copays to each resident, POA or designated representative. PNW accepts credit cards or a check for payment.

There are various reasons why your costs may change:

If your dosage and/or quantity changes for a prescription, the cost may change. For example, if your doctor or other prescriber increases the quantity from one pill a day to three, you may pay more.

There are times when the manufacturer increases the cost of a drug. If you are paying a percentage of that cost, then when the cost increases, both you and your plan will be paying more for the drug.

The most common reason your costs will change depends on which coverage stage you are in. There are four different coverage stages for most Medicare prescription drug coverage plans. How much you pay for a drug depends on which coverage stage you are in.

Deductible Stage: If your plan has a deductible, you pay the full cost of your prescriptions until you meet that deductible amount.

Initial Coverage Stage: After the deductible, you pay a copayment or coinsurance for your prescriptions, and your plan pays the rest. In 2025, you’ll pay 25% coinsurance for covered drugs. This stage ends when your total out-of-pocket spending reaches $2,000 for the year.

Catastrophic Coverage Stage: In 2025, once you reach the $2,000 out-of-pocket limit, you enter the catastrophic coverage stage, and you pay $0 for your covered prescriptions for the rest of the calendar year.

First, contact your Medicare Part D insurance provider to understand your policy. If you have further questions, please call PNW Pharmacy.
