Get Shipping Rates From All Shipping Providers
Rate Comparison Tool Overview
Independent pharmacies often work with multiple shipping providers but may lack visibility into each provider’s delivery rates. Previously, viewing rates required initiating a delivery with each provider individually—an inefficient and time-consuming process.
The BestRx Rate Comparison Tool simplifies this by allowing pharmacies to compare rates from all shipping providers in one view.
Using the Rate Comparison Tool:
Start a new delivery order.
In the Providers dropdown (top left), select "Get Rates From All Providers."
Add the prescription(s) to the order.
Select "Get Rates From All Providers" (bottom right) to view available shipping rates.
Select the desired shipping rate from the list to proceed with the order.
Once a shipping rate is selected, the shipping type, estimated delivery date, and total cost will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.
