Auntie M

just a thought with the 3mo prescrip. vs. 1 mo. I had one of those too but my insurance will only allow 1 mo at a time. My pharm. sugg. I call ins. if I plan a long trip and they will approve more than one month. Note - I've never tried it yet, but my pharm is generally right on.

Thank you -- no, the insurance company WANTS our prescriptions to be for a year with disbursement to be 3 months at a time. This doctor told them to distribute it 1 month at a time. This not only costs me more for co-pay - paying $10.00 every month instead of $10.00 for 3 month supply, it's a pain to the ins. company, too! Also, I can't be without the inhalent for even one day....so the chances of something happening in the mail could be bad. This last time, i got the prescription the day after my other inhalent was gone!!!!! If we travel for more than 3 months the ins. company happily sends us 6 month supply. Naw, the more I think of it, the more I've decided this doctor or her staff is incompetent. I will be asking to speak to the manager when I go in Thursday. A doctor who gets $250.00 for one visit :shock: should do a better job than that. :evil:
