Job Description
Pharmacy Technician - In-Office Dispensary Five Valleys Urology is a busy, independent specialty medical practice serving patients throughout western Montana and beyond. We are looking for an experienced Pharmacy Technician to join our in-office dispensary—but this is not a traditional pharmacy technician position . Our pharmacy technicians are an integral part of the clinical team. They don't simply process prescriptions or work from pharmacy software. They work within the patient's medical record, understand the bigger picture of the patient's care, collaborate with physicians and clinical staff, navigate insurance and financial assistance programs, and help ensure patients receive the medications they need as efficiently and affordably as possible. That means we're looking for more than someone who knows pharmacy workflow. We're looking for someone who is curious. Someone who wants to understand why , not just what . Someone who takes the initiative to investigate a problem, learn how things work, and find a solution rather than waiting for the next instruction. Our in-office dispensary is focused on urologic medications, with a significant role in supporting patients with advanced prostate cancer and other complex conditions. The right person will be interested not only in helping individual patients, but also in understanding how the dispensary fits into the success of the entire practice. Attention to detail is paramount. The work involves medications, insurance requirements, prior authorizations, financial assistance, clinical documentation, and coordination across multiple systems. Accuracy matters, follow-through matters, and taking ownership of your work matters. We are looking for someone who is: Curious — you want to understand how and why things work. A self-starter — you recognize what needs to be done and take initiative. Exceptionally detail-oriented — you understand that small details can have significant consequences. A problem solver — when you encounter a roadblock, your instinct is to figure out how to get around it. Patient-focused — you understand there is a person behind every prescription, authorization, and phone call. Team-oriented — you see yourself as part of the entire practice, not just the dispensary. Dependable — your teammates and our patients can count on you. Interested in learning — specialty medicine is complex, and we want someone who enjoys becoming better at what they do. This is a full-time position with competitive compensation, full benefits, and opportunities to grow. We work hard, move quickly, care deeply about our patients, and genuinely enjoy working together. What You'll Do Process and manage prescriptions through our pharmacy software. Work directly within our electronic health record and develop an understanding of each patient's overall clinical picture. Complete and follow through on prior authorizations. Navigate insurance requirements and communicate with payers. Work with Patient Assistance Programs (PAP) and Patient Assistance Foundations (PAF) to help patients obtain medications. Process and coordinate refill requests. Provide medication education and support to patients. Order and manage medication inventory. Collaborate closely with physicians, clinical staff, and our Advanced Prostate Cancer Program coordinator. Help identify opportunities to improve the efficiency, service, and performance of our in-office dispensary. Take ownership of problems and follow them through to resolution. Experience as a Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT) or Pharmacy Technician is required. Strong computer skills and the ability to work comfortably within an electronic health record are essential. Experience in specialty pharmacy, oncology, prior authorizations, or patient assistance programs is a plus—but curiosity, initiative, reliability, and the ability to learn are every bit as important to us. If you're looking for a pharmacy technician position where you can simply process prescriptions and move on to the next one, this probably isn't the right fit. If you want to understand the medicine, know the patients, solve problems, and become an important part of a specialty medical practice, we'd like to meet you. For consideration, please submit your resume, wage requirements, and availability. No relocation assistance is available at this time.
