Not tricare!
Say what you will about China, but they do know something about how to deal with healthcare fraud.

Of course, they do commit their fair share of medical fraud and worse that their leaders get away with.
A crazy neighbor came to my door at 6:00 a.m. to tell me I’d be killed if I didn’t move. Gave me a $1500 bottle of Provigil, told me to take it to a particular compounding pharmacy at exactly noon and ask for Sam. I happened to know where the DEA office is in our town to report fraud. That particular drug was not on DEA dangerous list, so they couldn’t take it. Police came and took it.
What is it with compounding pharmacies?
I am lovin’ all these federal busts you’re reporting on.
I get a compounded cream for HRT and for years I have had to pay out of pocket for it because Tricare will not cover items from a compounding pharmacy. They would cover three separate medications at a much higher cost that did not work so well but not the cream.
So something is being left out here.
