Sigh… Here’s another one of the formulary things….<\/p>\n
Yesterday I needed a Depo Prevera shot. One shot is good for 12 weeks (84 days). Of course, nothing is covered at my local pharmacy unless it is written for 30 days. And if I go through the mail order pharmacy, it’s about $15.00 higher.<\/p>\n
Weird? or What?<\/p>\n
So I’ve got to track this down and fight it, because I got charged $53.xx instead of $30.00<\/p>\n
And I’ve got to go back to my doctor and tell him to write the script for 30 days!<\/p>\n
We ran into this a few years ago. I need to be on Deflucan every day for a month. Well, the doctor thought it only came packages for treating normal yeast infections and wrong the script for that.<\/p>\n
The local pharmacy rejected the third refill and gave me all kinds of guff and stress. Finally the pharmacy actually thought for a second and said — if your doctor would write it for THIS form of Diflucan it would be covered AND it would have been cheaper.<\/p>\n
Why didn’t they say that the first time … and of course, they wouldn’t refund anything for before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
