Big Y Foods Inc. has introduced an innovative pharmacy mobile app named Big Y RX. Launched in June, this app is not merely a digital update but a robust tool designed to simplify health management for customers. It caters to individuals managing their health as well as that of their loved ones, including pets.

One standout feature is the Scan Refills function. Users can effortlessly order refills by scanning the bar code on their medication containers. Additionally, the app allows for seamless prescription transfers with just one click, enhancing convenience for users. Family Account Management is another useful feature, enabling users to add family members and pets, streamlining the management of multiple health care needs from one platform.

The app further includes a Pharmacy Locator to help customers find the nearest Big Y Pharmacy, along with Medicine and Refill Reminders to ensure users stay on track with medication schedules. Access to important customer statements, like tax documents, is immediate and can be done through the app or the pharmacy’s website.

Kathy Premo, pharmacy services manager at Big Y, highlighted the aim of this app is to enhance customer experience while assuring that pharmacy teams remain available for in-person or phone assistance. The Big Y RX app can be downloaded from both the App Store and Google Play Store, and it reflects Big Y’s commitment to leveraging technology to enhance healthcare accessibility and efficiency.

As one of the largest independently owned supermarket chains in New England, Big Y continues to prioritize customer service and innovation, remaining a significant player in the grocery and pharmacy sectors.
