And to help make your healthcare dollar go farther, the Linacia staff actively tries to find coupons and manufacturer discounts for high-cost drugs to ensure patients receive the lowest possible copays for their medications. For those who are uninsured or partly insured, the pharmacy offers cash prices on over 200 common generic medications comparable to or even lower than discounts offered online. Our pharmacists also work on lowering copays by finding drugs that are just as effective but have lower costs than other drugs, and they consult with doctors to remove any unnecessary medications. “As a neighborhood pharmacy, we are fully committed to earning our patients’ trust because we know they have a choice of where they can get their prescriptions filled,” says Dang. “For us, it’s about building relationships, helping people make the best decisions for their health and making a lasting difference in their lives.” YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED to learn that Dameron Hospital runs Linacia Pharmacy, across the street from our main campus. Linacia Pharmacy’s friendly, knowledgeable staff are dedicated to providing a level of personalized “service with a smile” that you would be hard- pressed to find at major pharmacy chains. Linacia Pharmacy has been a trusted, integrated service of Dameron Hospital for almost 30 years. It provides convenient retail pharmacy services to the community, as well as patients of Dameron Hospital. The Linacia team collaborates closely with hospital physicians and case management staff to make sure our patients’ departure from the hospital goes smoothly and that the medications they need are ready for pickup on their way home. Saving you time and money “As a part of our commitment to excellent customer service, our team strives to deliver very short wait times for our patients,” says Duy Anh Dang, PharmD, Linacia Pharmacy manager. “We know that the last thing someone wants to do, especially now during the COVID-19 pandemic, is find themselves sitting in a pharmacy waiting for their prescription to be filled.” Great service: 12  Health Outlook • Fall 2020 MEDICATIONS
