Capsule review

Capsule is a pharmacy built around a phone app and its own couriers. Once a doctor e-prescribes to Capsule, or you ask it to pull refills from your old pharmacy, it fills the order and texts you to pick a delivery window, and delivery is free on the same day in the cities it serves. You pay only your copay, and Capsule says it accepts all commercial insurance plans, Managed Medicaid and Medicare Part D, and shows your price before you schedule. Pharmacists answer by chat or text, and the service handles prior authorizations, medication syncing and temperature-controlled drugs. Controlled substances are delivered after an ID check. Couriers bring packages by hand in discreet, tamper-sealed bags, so someone has to be there to receive them. The main limit is geography: Capsule only covers several US cities, so check your ZIP code first. Its site does not publish cash prices, so uninsured patients have less to compare.
