June 1 is the start of the hurricane
season in Florida. If a hurricane
strikes, power outages, flooding and
other problems could prevent you
from being able to refill your prescriptions
when needed. To ensure you
have a plentiful supply of needed
medication, we waive “refill too soon”
time restrictions for members who
live in a county under a hurricane
warning. Those members can refill
their prescriptions in advance,
regardless of when the prescription
had most recently been filled.
The waiver applies only to counties
under a hurricane warning issued by
the National Weather Service, under
a state of emergency issued by the
governor, or counties where an
Emergency Operations Center or
Emergency Management Plan has
been activated.
