Transfer prescription from walgreens to express scripts

You can choose one of these easy methods:

  • Call Express Scripts at 877-603-1032, and let them do all the work. For most medications, Express Scripts will be able to contact your doctor and arrange for your first mail-order supply.
  • Ask your doctor for a new prescription for up to a 90-day supply, plus refills for up to one year (if appropriate). Then, have your doctor fax the prescription to the Express Scripts Pharmacy. (Only your doctor can fax your prescriptions.)

For refills remaining on covered medications you take regularly and fill at a retail pharmacy, log into Express-Scripts.com, scroll down the Order Center page to "Transfer your retail prescriptions," and select the medications you'd like to transfer. Express Scripts will do the rest. (If you’re a first-time visitor to the Express Scripts website, please take a moment to register using your member ID number and a recent prescription number.)

Walgreens is required by federal regulations to protect the privacy of your information. Your personal identifying information is used only to confirm your identity and to make sure that the person requesting access is really you. This process is similar to the authentication process used by banks, credit card companies and other organizations that require sensitive personal information to make sure that unauthorized individuals do not access your personal information.

Registration

  • Why should I create a pharmacy registration?

    Once your online pharmacy account is active, you will be able to manage prescriptions, refill prescriptions, transfer prescriptions, change store location and have prescriptions delivered to you as well as view and/or print your prescription history from the last 18 months.

    Did this answer your question

  • How do I create a pharmacy registration on Walgreens.com?

    To create a Walgreens pharmacy account:

    1. Select the Register link under the Walgreens logo at the top of any page. You will be taken to the Create your Walgreens.com account page.
    2. Fill in the required information on the next page and click Continue.
    3. Under Manage your prescriptions click Join now.
    4. Fill in the required information on the next page and click Submit.
    5. Your account is now created, but you will need to verify your identity.
    6. Follow the prompts to verify your identity online, by phone, or with prescription number.
    7. For online verification, you will be asked a few simple questions about yourself which are generated using personal identifying information, such as your date of birth, in a process similar to those used by banks and credit institutions.
    8. Phone verification uses your phone number plus the 8 digit authentication code provided on the screen.
    9. For prescription verification, simply provide a prescription you filled at Walgreens in the last 12 months, if available.
    10. Once verified, your pharmacy records may not be visible in your account immediately. If you are not able to see your records after 24 hours, please contact Customer Service at 1-877-250-5823.

    Did this answer your question

  • What is an activation code?

    An activation code is a unique 8-digit computer-generated number for use in pharmacy account phone verification. It adds another layer of security to ensure that your prescription information is released to you, alone. If your activation code doesn't work, you will be automatically connected to a Customer Service agent. If you are not automatically connected, please call Customer Service toll-free, at 1-877-250-5823.

    Did this answer your question

  • How do I use the activation code to fully register my pharmacy account?

    During pharmacy registration, you will be directed to the Complete Your Verification page. You will see the Verify by Phone area which features a computer-generated activation code. Next, call 1-800-573-3586 and you will be prompted to enter your activation code on your phone keypad. This will establish your account and ensure that you, alone, have access to your personal information. If our automated phone system is unable to verify your account, you will be transferred to a Customer Service agent for verification assistance. If you are not automatically connected, please call Customer Service toll-free, at 1-877-250-5823.

    Did this answer your question

  • Why must I establish my activation code from my home phone?

    The phone number that you call from to establish your pharmacy account must match the primary phone saved on your account, which in most cases is your home phone. This adds another layer of security to ensure that your prescription information is released to you, alone. If your activation code doesn't work, you will automatically be connected to a Customer Service agent. If you are not automatically connected, please call Customer Service toll-free, at 1-877-250-5823.

    Did this answer your question

  • My account was already activated. Why is the system prompting me to activate my account again?

    One possible reason is that you have recently reset your password. If you reset your password and answer your security questions on file correctly, your authentication information and saved credit cards will remain activated. If you are unable to answer your security questions correctly, resetting your password will remove authentication information as well as the saved credit cards on your account. Previously saved credit cards will need to be re-entered.

    Did this answer your question

  • Why do I need to provide personal information?

    Your personal identifying information, such as your date of birth, is only used to confirm your identity and to make sure that the person requesting access is really you. This process helps to ensure that unauthorized individuals do not have access to your pharmacy records online.

    Did this answer your question

  • Where did Walgreens get my personal information?

    The information for the online verification process is obtained from the same institutions that banks, credit card companies and other organizations use for identity confirmation. The verification questions ensure that your information is released to you, alone. The information is used for verification purposes only and will not be saved or stored for reference on your account.

    Did this answer your question

  • What does Verification in Progress mean?

    If you see this message, it means that a Walgreens.com representative is working on matching the information you submitted online with your pharmacy account. You will receive an email once this process is complete. If you do not receive an email within 3 hours of your request, call Customer Service toll-free, at 1-877-250-5823.

    Did this answer your question

  • I need to complete my verification later. Can I still order a refill online?

    Yes, you can still order a prescription refill using Express Refills if you need to complete your verification later. Just make sure you have the prescription number you wish to refill before using Express Refills.

    Did this answer your question

  • What if I am unable to answer the online verification questions?

    Our system will provide a link to phone verification first, where you can try to verify again. If you have reached the maximum number of attempts, you will be prompted to verify by another verification option.

    Did this answer your question

  • What do you mean by confirm your identity, verify your identity and authentication?

    These are terms used to describe the process of determining that the person requesting access is really you. It is our intent to conduct our business operations in a matter that protects our customers' confidential information and permits them to feel secure that we will do so.

    Did this answer your question

Parent/Guardian Information

  • How do I set up pharmacy accounts for my kids?
  • My child is about to turn 18. What does that mean for prescription management?

    Parents or guardians may no longer access their child's records once the child turns 18. The new adult can allow permission for a Family administrator to manage their account by accepting a new invitation from the administrator. New adults whose parent or legal guardian have previously linked their name to a Family Prescriptions account and managed their account may, upon turning 18, elect to have the same parent or guardian continue to manage the account.

    If an 18-year-old denies access to a parent or guardian, access to his/her records will be denied. Please note that if a minor remains a beneficiary of a parent's or legal guardian's health insurance policy, he or she should check with their insurer before making any change. To link a new adult, follow the directions to invite an adult in the Family Prescriptions Section.
