WellSense ACO Pharmacy Update: Process for Supply Chain Issues
The WellSense pharmacy team has shared the following process for providers if there is a supply access issue. In general, the provider would need to search for an alternative in-network pharmacy by using the pharmacy search tool. The pharmacy search tool is available for both ACO members and providers.

If the provider cannot find an in-network pharmacy with access to the medication, they should reach out to pharmacym mailbox. The pharmacym mailbox (pharmacym@wellsense.org) is a resource for providers to reach out to for claims specific escalations, including supply issues.
When reaching out to the pharmacy mailbox, providers should include:
- Member info (name, DOB, WS ID #)
- Drug info (drug name and strength)
- Pharmacy info (pharmacy name)
- Time / Urgency information (e.g., refill due date)
- Example: I am looking for assistance with a prescription I sent to Accredo for Tadalafil 10 mg for patient Toi Story, DOB 2/2/2022, WS ID#123456789. Patient will be out of medication in two days.
