WHAT WE DELIVER
Refills across the adult psychiatric medication classes.
Refill workflow covers six medication categories for established adult patients. Cadence and visit length adjust to the class — non-controlled regimens stretch out, controlled substances stay tight with PMP review.
Antidepressant refills
SSRIs, SNRIs, and atypical antidepressants for established patients on a stable response — short visit, symptom and side-effect check, e-prescription routed same business day.
Stimulant refills (Schedule II with PMP)
Adult ADHD stimulant refills on the controlled substance rail — PMP query at every refill, DEA-compliant electronic signature, no phone or fax refills under federal rule.
Mood stabilizer refills
Lithium, lamotrigine, valproate, and carbamazepine with monitoring labs on the cadence the medication requires — level checks and dose verification before renewal.
Antianxiety refills (conservative use)
Buspirone and hydroxyzine refills as standing options; benzodiazepines refilled case-by-case under PMP review with a clear taper or maintenance plan documented in the chart.
Sleep medication refills
Trazodone, ramelteon, low-dose doxepin, and other non-controlled sleep medications on a maintenance cadence; Schedule IV sleep agents refilled case-by-case under PMP review.
Refill bridges between scheduled visits
Short bridges between scheduled visits, case-by-case, when the clinical picture supports holding the regimen until the next full visit.
WHO WE SERVE
When a refill visit is the right level for the patient in your chair.
Refill cadence fits established adult patients on regimens the chart already supports. New patients begin with a psychiatric evaluation.
| Archetype | Why a refill visit fits |
|---|---|
| The established Mental Health West Palm Beach – Trustpsychiatry patient | Already past the evaluation — the chart, the diagnosis, and the regimen are documented; refill cadence holds the response. |
| The patient on a stable medication regimen | Dose holds, response holds, the question is cadence and monitoring rather than selection. |
| The patient between scheduled visits needing a bridge | A short refill bridge to the next full visit, case-by-case, when the clinical picture supports holding the regimen. |
| The controlled substance patient needing PMP-compliant refill | PMP query, agreement review, DEA-compliant electronic signature — the controlled rail, on time. |
| The patient transitioning from another prescriber | Begins with a psychiatric evaluation; the refill cadence opens once the chart sits with this practice. |
| The patient who needs an early refill for travel | Case-by-case, documented in advance, balanced against the medication’s cadence and the controlled-substance rail. |
OUR PROCESS
How refill cadence runs at Mental Health West Palm Beach – Trustpsychiatry.
Three steps from refill request to pharmacy pickup — the rail the cadence runs on.
Confirm patient status
Established adult patients schedule a refill visit. New patients begin with a psychiatric evaluation — the refill cadence opens after the evaluation closes and the chart sits with this practice.
Schedule the refill visit appropriate to the medication class
Non-controlled refills run in a 20 minute follow-up; controlled substance refills run 30 minutes with PMP review and agreement check. Belvedere Rd in-person or secure Florida telepsych — the workflow is identical, the convenience is yours.
PMP check + refill sent same business day
Non-controlled scripts e-prescribed before you leave; controlled substance refills routed by DEA-compliant electronic signature after PMP review. The next refill cadence is set at the visit so the rhythm never breaks.
EVIDENCE FOR THE CADENCE
Three things worth knowing about refill cadence.
Prescriber continuity, PMP discipline, and in-person/telepsych equivalence for non-crisis refills shape the workflow here.
“Same-prescriber continuity reduces medication discontinuation rates in adult psychiatric outpatient care — the response curve does not reset on a new clinician’s starting impression.”
One prescriber writes every refill and reads the full trajectory.
“Prescription Drug Monitoring Program review at every controlled substance refill is the standard of care that prevents diversion and protects the patient from inadvertent risk.”
PMP review catches duplicate prescribers, dose drift, and risky overlap before the refill leaves the room.
“For non-crisis refill visits on stable adult psychiatric regimens, in-person and secure telepsychiatry deliver equivalent clinical outcomes, and patients prefer whichever modality fits their schedule.”
Same workflow either way — symptom check, dose verification, e-prescription. Convenience is the patient’s.

SCOPE — STRAIGHT
What this practice delivers on refills — and what falls outside scope.
In scope — established adult patient refills across all psychiatric medication classes the chart already supports: antidepressants, mood stabilizers, atypical antipsychotics, stimulants on the controlled rail with PMP review, non-stimulant ADHD agents, sleep agents, and antianxiety regimens documented and monitored on a cadence that matches the medication.
Out of scope — new patients without a psychiatric evaluation, methadone (federally certified opioid treatment programs only), IV or injectable psychiatric medications, and urgent unscheduled refills outside business hours.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
Common questions about prescription refills.
I’m a new patient — can I just get a refill? ▸
No. New patients begin with a psychiatric evaluation before any prescription is written by this practice. The evaluation establishes the diagnosis, medication history, and the chart that supports ongoing refill cadence. Once the evaluation closes, the refill rhythm opens.
How do I schedule a refill visit? ▸
Established patients book a 20 minute non-controlled refill visit or a 30 minute controlled substance refill visit online through the contact page or by phone at (561) 849-4449. The next refill cadence is set at the close of each visit so the rhythm holds without back-and-forth between appointments.
What’s required for controlled substance refills? ▸
An established prescriber-patient relationship, a Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PMP) query at every refill, a controlled substance agreement on file, and a DEA-compliant electronic signature on the script. Controlled substance refills cannot be called or faxed under federal rule. The visit can run in-person on Belvedere Rd or via secure Florida telepsych.
What if I run out before my visit? ▸
Call (561) 849-4449. Short refill bridges between scheduled visits are case-by-case for established patients on stable regimens, documented in the chart, and balanced against the medication’s cadence and the controlled substance rail. Early refills outside the medication’s rhythm are not standard.
Can refills be done via telepsych? ▸
Yes for established patients in Florida. Non-crisis refills on stable adult psychiatric regimens deliver equivalent outcomes in-person and via secure telepsych. Controlled substance refills are also telepsych-eligible with PMP query at every visit. The intake call confirms the right modality for the case.
Do you do early refills for travel? ▸
Case-by-case for established patients, documented in advance with travel dates on the chart. Non-controlled regimens have more flexibility; controlled substances are constrained by the PMP and the medication’s cadence. Call ahead — the conversation is faster when it isn’t happening at the last minute.
How much does a refill visit cost? ▸
Refill visits bill as established-patient follow-ups (typically 99213 for the 20 minute non-controlled visit, 99214 for the 30 minute controlled substance visit). This practice is in-network with Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Florida Medicaid, AvMed, Evernorth, TRICARE, M-Care, Cuare, HP, and Paramount. BCBS Florida and Humana are credentialing in progress — the Grow Therapy bridge covers those plans until in-network status is confirmed. Patient responsibility is surfaced before each visit.
