Big Y RX is more than just an upgrade -- it’s a comprehensive suite of tools to support a patient’s health journey.

Big Y Foods Inc. has launched a new pharmacy mobile app. Launched in June, Big Y RX is more than just an upgrade from the original application. According to the grocer, it’s a comprehensive suite of tools to support a patient’s health journey.

Customers can use the following new features:

Scan Refills: Easily order a refill by simply scanning the bar code on the container.
Prescription Transfers: Transfer prescriptions in just one click.
Family Account Management: Add family members, including pets, to manage the whole family’s health care in one place.

Patients without access to a phone or mobile device can get all of the same services online.

“While the goal of the new app is to enhance customer experience, our pharmacists and pharmacy teams are always here to help you both in-person or over the phone,” said Kathy Premo, pharmacy services manager. “Also, patients can access all of the same services from the app on the pharmacy website platform.”

The Big Y RX app is available for download in the App Store, the Google Play Store or online at https://www.bigy.com/Pharmacy.
