Re: TAPS
That is what ours was on Blue Cross then we changed insurance (The company did) it is still Blue Cross but not in the same State or the same company owners. It is a scam for sure. We have to have a doctor visit and doctor has to fax in the scripts. I could understand that if it were pain pills but this is for hypothyroidism, high blood pressure and for my husband AvaDart.

I'm sure I don't understand this med Rx stuff.  Most of my med cost me $4 a month at CVS Pharmacy but one of them costs over $200 each time.  That seems like a big difference to me.

No I can go to Wal Mart and get them but I have to pay retail because my insurance will not cover any cost if purchased in less than a three month supply and only through Xpress Scripts. I can buy them but can't take advantage of the lower price, yet we are paying for drug insurance. The difference is incredible.

Are you saying you.......
HAVE to buy your drugs through your insurance?   You can't just take the script and fill it at Walmart or Krogers?  I would think they would rather that you pay for it yourself???   What am I missing here?

One of my medications is $1,000 per month and I am responsible for 15%. And I have 15 other ones at varying prices. I am drug indebted, just so sad the amount I pay per month! sam
