Pharmacy

ICS Pharmacy has a retail pharmacy at our Niles location that provides specialty prescriptions services for patients who have been diagnosed with complex medical conditions such as cancer, blood disorders, etc.

Pharmacy & Dispensing Services

ICS’s comprehensive approach to providing specialty cancer and hematology care includes Medically Integrated Dispensaries (MID) serving the entire practice. Our pharmacy is staffed with courteous, knowledgeable and professional pharmacy team. Our dispensaries dispense over 500 prescriptions each month.

Advantages of Medically Integrated Dispensaries:

• Medications dispensed by dispensing physicians/pharmacy teams with extensive knowledge of complex cancer and hematology treatments.
• Access to special order medications (cancer treatments) that are not routinely stocked at local pharmacies.
• Readily available supportive care medications for the management of side effects.
• Coordination and sequencing of oral cancer treatments with other forms of treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy or immunotherapy.
• Coordinated follow-up visits with your physician and communication with your care team (including phone calls, etc.)
• Access to expert advise and consultation from a multidisciplinary care team (physicians, nurse practitioners/physician assistants, nurses, pharmacy teams, etc.)
• One-stop convenience for all cancer and hematology treatments – saving you time by coordinating your medication refill pick-ups with your doctors’ appointments and eliminating the need to make additional stops at the drug store.
• Faster processing of prior authorizations (required by insurance companies for cancer treatments) by an experienced and trained team due to the integration with the doctor’s office.
• Competitive pricing on most medications in comparison with large chain retail and specialty pharmacies.
• Experienced team of patient benefit representatives assist patients with affording expensive cancer treatments by applying for grants from foundations, pharmaceutical company coupon cards/vouchers, compassionate/free drug programs and other sources.
• Our MID can process prescription claims with most pharmacy benefit providers, including Medicare Part B and Part D.
