Many of you might remember that one of the things that lead up to my having a complete meltdown both physically and mentally was Express Scripts.
No, seriously they were a major contributor.
The insurance plan I was on, had things set up so that we HAD to use Express Scripts for anything long term. Or at least that was the way everything came across.
Well, Pill Pack to the rescue. Not only do they package everything in a convenient box and everything every two weeks, but they do all the pharmacy benefit fighting for you.
For example, when I needed Celebrex and the insurance company was insisting on killing my doctor with paperwork — called a prior authorization — Pill Pack stepped in and handles it. They have even hunt down manufacturer programs that reduce the cost.
Now I still get my insulin from the local pharmacy, just for the convenience factor all around but when I do have them ship insulin they do it in a cooler with gel packs the right temperature. Express Scripts put the vials in a package, surrounded it with frozen gel packs and hoped for the best.
And best yet, the Pill Packs have always arrived in time. There were a few times I wasn't sure that they would get to me in time, but yes, every two weeks I have pills to start when I need them.
They do have a couple of options for traveling and vacations. They can either ship early or they can ship to your vacation site. I haven't tried that yet, but I have full confidence.
