Even if they won't give you enough for the full course, at least a few days worth or a week's worth every month for a long term script you take monthly would help.slugmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12728856166374248591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-72405831459793696742010-04-01T20:23:59.468-05:002010-04-01T20:23:59.468-05:00I had to fight to get a 90.

There are a few drugs that aren't covered, but when that has happened, I've either asked the doctor to prescribe a similar one that is covered.Annie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123644833186800503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-50527639163646923592010-04-01T07:46:52.711-05:002010-04-01T07:46:52.711-05:00Thank God for military insurance.

We do have to pay for our meds since we moved to NC but the costs were small enough--then we started using the military mail order pharmacy. The price is even smaller--there are a few meds we aren't able to get through them but the most we pay at a pharmacy here in town is $22--even though one of our meds is regularly over $300 a month. I just pray this is one benefit that won't change like so many others have.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02813022311330177395noreply@blogger.com
