you can mail meds just not narcotics. Our daughter mails our VA meds to us all the time. We stay put for a week or 10 days and give her the address via email. She prints the email and uses it as the label. We buy prepaid envelopes or boxes from the post office so she doesn't have to pay postage. She does have to drop off the packages in person at the post office. I don't use VA for meds. I use CVS Pharmacy. Generic prescriptions are usually cheap for 3 month supply. I refill my prescriptions online and I can select the location where I want to pick them up. I allow an extra full day for them to process the request. Never had a problem with CVS. I did have problems with Walmart transferring the prescriptions so I changed to CVS. Unfortunately CVS does not have locations in all states. I didn't choose Walgreens because they didn't sign a new contract with Tricare or ChampVA.
