re: What exactly do Pharmacists do?

It's not typically one way or the other. The pharmacists have the computer system that will warn them of contraindications, drug interactions, etc... they can choose to override the system if needed, though.

Pharmacists cannot enter DUR, copay changes, early fill or other overrides at point of sale. They can't even override an incorrect DOB. The PBM enters overrides based upon Plan approval. This is one reason for delays at Pharm.
