Prescription Delivery

Wegmans in Geneseo delivers prescriptions to the main Lauderdale Health Center building Monday-Friday during our business hours. New prescriptions must be received by 2 pm in order to be delivered that same day. To initiate this service, you must first complete this paperwork and turn it in to Wegmans or Lauderdale. Note that these forms will authorize Wegmans to keep your credit card on file.

Other things to know:

• You must opt out of automatic refills; instead, inform Wegmans to deliver to Lauderdale when you call for a refill.
• You may get a text from Wegmans that alerts you that your prescription is ready, but that does not mean it has arrived at Lauderdale.
• Wegmans usually delivers prescriptions to Lauderdale on weekdays between 3 and 3:30 pm.
• You must sign up each semester.

If you need help paying for your medication, review this information on drug assistance programs.
