Between primary care providers in Iowa? Get a 90-day bridge refill of your stable, non-controlled chronic medication — $45 flat, one medication per visit. No insurance, no video call, no controlled substances.
Our Iowa-licensed providers cover every ZIP code in the state. We e-prescribe to any licensed pharmacy in Iowa — CVS, Walgreens, grocery store pharmacies, independents, and mail-order.
Stable, non-controlled chronic medications you've been reliably taking — same class Wheel and similar services bridge. Common categories:
Zero exceptions. If your medication is on this list we'll tell you up front and refund automatically.
All Bidwell Health providers hold active Iowa licensure — verifiable through the state board's online lookup. Scope of practice follows Iowa law. We never bridge a medication outside our written scope, and we refund automatically if we can't safely continue your care via telehealth.
Yes — if your medication is on our non-controlled formulary (common cardiovascular, metabolic, antidepressant, and respiratory medications), a Iowa-licensed provider can review your history and send up to a 90-day bridge prescription to your Iowa pharmacy.
Non-controlled, stable, chronic medications: blood pressure (lisinopril, losartan, amlodipine, HCTZ, metoprolol), cholesterol (atorvastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin), diabetes (metformin), thyroid (levothyroxine), SSRIs and SNRIs (sertraline, escitalopram, fluoxetine, bupropion), GERD (omeprazole, pantoprazole), and asthma (albuterol, montelukast). We do NOT refill controlled substances, opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants, or anything requiring specialty monitoring.
Up to 90 days, depending on clinical appropriateness. Bridge refills are intended as a transition — to give you time to establish or re-establish primary care in Iowa, not as a substitute for ongoing primary care.
$45 flat per medication reviewed. Generic medications at Iowa pharmacies (Hy-Vee, CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Target (CVS inside), and most local independents) typically run $5–25/month with GoodRx or similar. Our fee is per visit, not a subscription.
That's exactly the gap Bidwell Health fills. If the medication is on our non-controlled formulary, we can review your intake the same day during business hours and send a bridge prescription to your Iowa pharmacy while you arrange longer-term primary care.
Alongside bridge refills, we treat acute conditions for Iowa residents too:
$45 flat per bridge refill visit in Iowa. That includes provider review, prescription, and any follow-up messaging within 7 days. No insurance, no subscription, no surprise bills. Medication cost is separate and paid at your pharmacy.
