Our health care is total gov’t controlled. My last gastro visit they paid him a whopping TWENTY EIGHT CENTS between Medicare and Tricare Life.
Tricare Life (Ret, Military over 65)
DOD MANDATE 4/14/2014For Daily Medicines
is forcing us to use either Base whose drugs are limited by size of base and is not wheel chair or handicap friendly or Express Scripts MANDATED Tricare Life. 4/14/14. Express Scripts is a sorry excuse of a provider. You never know if your order is right, what generic, what manufacture, or what country. All stuffed into your mail box UN PHOTO ID SIGNED FOR making them available to thieves and meth makers to steal. Or Neighborhood kids to access.
That is nearly $2K worth of meds every 3 months. With no guarantee that a DAW script will be DAW. And for me my Synthroid has to be Name Brand, I’m allergic to the generic.
I want to know how this company with a history of defrauding government and consumers got this multi BILLION $$ DOD contract? Money trail some where.

I don’t know what to say except sympathize. When I was taking my late husband to VA for Alzheimer’s, we went to the pharmacy room to pick up his perscriptions and paid the copay. Now that he is gone I do the same at Kaiser Permanente for my thyroid meds. If you have to use this delivery service, why couldn’t they arrange to deliver to the base with a designated pick up point where people would present ID for their meds once they are delivered. UPS has tracking system, why not these guys.
