User Reviews for OptumRx

The app on the mobile device

It is convenient however sometimes it’s very confusing I also think it should keep your first part of logging in permanent so that you don’t have to keep typing it and that you would only have to type in your password and then when you request medication if the doctor will not fill it by mail order then they should have the doctor notify the patient immediately and or have optimum RX notify the patient as well and then this way the patient can call the doctor and see about getting the medication that they need I hope that helps have a wonderful day plus it would be great if some medications you could just get immediately like if you go to the doctors and you’re sick and you need an antibiotic it will be great if your price and your terms would be honored at local pharmacies just my humble opinion but maybe it is and I’m on aware plus there isn’t a clear precise notification of just how many times patient may get this medication filled per month the quantity or if you put limitations and and then if there are limitations why are there limitations are they just your policy or are they a federal and state policy/law because if they are only your policy then in all actuality you are hindering the treatment process of every patient you deal with

I want to see the date eligible for a refill and I want to opt in to hassle free refills

I would like to see you the date each prescription is available for refill at the online OptumRX pharmacy. I have to call OptumRX and speak to an employee to find out that information (date a prescription is eligible for refill) or look on the prior medicine bottle. It should just be listed on the page where you refill each medication from.Right now on the app there is a box that is already checked that in enrolls you in to the no hassle refill service. Every time I refill a prescription I have to remember and go in and un-check the box if I would like to not be enrolled. It is a very big hassle to remember to uncheck the box every time I refill a prescription. I have forgotten it three times now and had to call customer service to cancel the hassle free refill service. I am going to stop using the app and start calling a actual employee every time I would like to refill a prescription because of this problem. It’s a game changer for me and I will stop using this app. You could fix this problem by having to check the box to opt into the hassle free refills instead of out of.

Very poor website

Update - believe it or not they actually made the website, and app less useful. Now the two pieces of software don’t even have the same info. On the website you can’t find what info you want. I wanted to look up one med I needed to refill. It only showed one of my meds, not all of them. It showed the order as ready to ship with a due date 3 months ago. The app showed all the meds and let me order the one I wanted, but I couldn’t sign on to it directly through the app. It kept telling me the name and password were not on file. It was the same one I used to sign on the the website with no problem. Luckily you could switch to the app from inside the website which is what I did. That link signed on just fine. As always OptumRx has the worst software, most buggy, next to useless stuff I’ve ever used, and I am no newbe to computers. Please, please put some effort into fixing your software so it is intuitive, user friendly, and consistent between platforms, please. I have no choice but to use your service so I am stuck with it and have to fiddle with it or call every time I try to place an order.Old review post - Even though they have updated and changed their website repeatedly it is still far less then perfect. Very slow to load, slow to update info and find searched items. Process is lacking. It is somewhat better with last update but still presents problem navigating the website.

Login broken rendering app useless and suspicious reviews

Ever since iOS 12, the app has become unusable. I decided to wait 2-3 weeks after the system release, before writing this critical review; in fairness to the developer giving them time to fix the log-in issue. Apple gives developers ample time (usually about 6 months) with their beta program to fix any issues before the launch of a new operating system, so it’s pretty shameful if your app has major issues on release date. Considering this is an app that many people rely on for their health, it makes it all the more shameful. I have not been able to login to this app using the fingerprint scanner for weeks. It’s not a systemwide problem, as all my other apps with fingerprint security logins work fine. When the app works, it’s provides the pertinent information needed, however the user interface is not very intuitive, and sways away from most of Apple’s good practices design standards. It’s not accessible and does not take advantage of Apple’s system-wide text resizing, which is imperative for people with poor or low vision. We should expect more from a company which we choose to safeguard our health.I couldn’t help but notice recent extraordinary amount of 5-star, one-sentence, generic reviews. Appears very suspicious. It’s possible these reviews were written are by positive individuals with little to say, or maybe they are fake reviews paid for by the developer, however that would violate Apple’s rules.

OptumRx is the best!

I have switched to OptumRx about a year ago and I have never been happier. Not only does it save me a lot of money but it also saves me time and aggravation. I do not have to stop at the grocery store and wait in long lines to pick up my prescription or to drop it off. I know people are at the age where every minute is precious and long lines are a pain, especially with kids screaming or dinner waiting to be cooked or you’re just tired and achy. Well it is very nice to know that your prescriptions will be waiting for you in the mailbox when you get home. The OptumRx app allows you to re-order your prescriptions in seconds and to check on how many re-orders you have left or which ones need to be refilled with a doctors call. If you do not have time to call the doctor for a refill OptumRX will call the doctor for you and it is a whole lot easier to get hold of OptumRx at whatever time you want 24/7 than it is a doctors office from 9:00-5:00, right?Susan ChurbuckA very satisfied OptumRx Subscriber

Almost Useless

The app is almost as horrible as the website. Logging in and loading various pages can take forever as I’m stuck watching the spinning circle for 5+ minutes before I give up and try again another day just to have the same problems. The app says I have zero orders sometimes and that I have one order a few minutes later. Medications will be listed in an order then suddenly not listed anywhere; then given a delivery date, then go missing from my list again.Order tracking gives no valuable information. My very critical meds have been sitting states away for six days “pending acceptance”. I reached out to Optum through their online system. I received an email saying I had a document pending my review. I assume it’s a response to my message, but the app doesn’t list documents anywhere and the website shows I have no documents. I really regret attempting to move my prescriptions to this service. It’s caused more stress not knowing if my meds will show up in time and fighting to navigate a clunky, non-intuitive, unresponsive app. I’m sorely disappointed. There is really no excuse for such a poorly designed, amateurish app from such a large company.

Horrible Mistake

The selling point for switching to Optumrx was that I would save some money and have the convenience of home delivery. I couldn’t really see a downside. So, I picked my two prescriptions and choose to transfer them over.They never filled. They kept canceling my orders without notification. I would look on the app and see that they were either canceled or non-existant. I had to keep calling to find out why. They kept contacting my doctor and I received emails saying that they were approved. I kept having to inform them that there is an existing prescription -one that was filled easily with Walgreens (the original ones I transferred in the app). They kept claiming that my two prescriptions duplicated each other, despite them being on the same script from the same doctor and having been previously filled. Again, they canceled my order without notice.Eventually, I ran out of medication and became incredibly sick. They told me that they would expedite it, but later canceled my order without explanation. After two rounds and weeks of fake expedited orders I decided to switch back to Walgreens.Save yourself some grief and avoid this app. A couple dollars saved isn’t worth dying over.

Worst app I have ever used!

I’m pretty computer and electronic savvy but this app will make even Bill Gates feel computer-illiterate. The interface is not user-friendly whatsoever and the data is always inaccurate! I am a 37-yo helping out my retired parents so I signed them up for OptumRx so that they don’t have to travel to the pharmacy or pay out-of-pocket. From the get-go I have had the worst customer service over the phone which made me reconsider going back to retail pharmacy but for the sake of my parents I decided to battle thru the rudeness and inconsistencies along with the incompetence of some of their agents. When I finally succeeded in signing them up after months and way too many phone calls, I thought I can simply use this app and never have to speak to an agent ever again. But boy was I wrong! The app is so hard to navigate through and the information is not up-to-date therefore I am not able to make “quick and easy” refill requests which means having to call and speak with these “awesome agents” once again. Can someone please just update the darn app and make it easy for senior citizens and myself to use? Otherwise just decommission the OptumRx app and stop toying with your customers.

Optum Rx Mail Order Pharmacy

Is a great way to avoid trips to drop off and pick up prescriptions and maintain authorize refills that my Doctors prescribe. They will also attempt to reach out to my Doctor when it's time to refill a prescription that doesn't have any refills left. The pharmacist can not fill a prescription without a doctor's order. And sometimes they need us to call our doctors to order more refills. And if our doctors don't supply the order then they are not able to fill it. But Optum Rx pharmacy keeps up with the time a refill is needed so that we don't run out of our maintenance medications, and that's a good thing. Local pharmacies don't. Most times they don't notify you when your prescriptions are ready for pick up. At least my doesn't. I have to call them to see if they have received an order from my doctors and when it will be ready for pick up. And even if the drug is an antibiotic or server pain medication I don't receive a call or text message to let me know that my prescription is ready. But using the mail order pharmacy is not a good choice for any prescriptions less than 3 months or 90 days. And my doctors usually will add 2 refills. So there you have it. Optum Rx is a very good choice for home delivery medications.

Forced to enroll

So our we received a letter stating we had to use this mail order service or pay full price for our medications?? I enrolled only to find out that the pharmacy we currently use is allowing us to use a manufacture coupon to off set the cost of one very expensive medication to treat type two diabetes! OptiumRx had me send in the same coupon and then told me they could not apply it to our medication? So I paid out of pocket the ridiculous price and then when it came time to reorder the price was higher than the first time due to “new year” “new deductible”?? I called my physicians office and was told that the original pharmacy could fill this medication for free!! I called them and I ordered the medication and it cost nothing out of pocket!! IMO OptiumRx is a scam period! Also I ordered a second medication through them on the same day that was zero out of pocket and have yet to receive that medication that shipped out on Monday? It’s Friday and still no medication? I will call the local pharmacy today and have that filled as well I have been out of it since Sunday and thank god it is not a life or death medication for my health!!!
