Recently, many patients have asked, “What should I do if my family is out of town and the medication I use is not available locally? First you need to check with your primary care physician if you need to adjust your medication. If you need to adjust your medication, then you must bring your visit card and outpatient medical records to your appointment. If you do not need to adjust your medication, you can ask a family member or friend to bring your visit card and outpatient medical record (you must bring your visit card) to the outpatient clinic to register and get a prescription. You can also use your card number and password to register at the self-service registration machine (you don’t need to bring your card, but it must be loaded with more than the registration fee) and then write a prescription at the clinic. Tip: Change your card password in time after you get your card, so that you don’t get registered by mistake.
