Beyond the professional services that pharmacists offer their patients, they are often asked to perform many small administrative services.

For example:

• Reprinting receipts;
• Providing records kept for tax purposes to help with your book-keeping;
• Faxing of requests for prescriptions refill requests to your doctor to make things more convenient for you.

These administrative services are generally not reimbursed by your insurer, and your pharmacist can charge you for them.
