“I think it’s mail order. I get my prescriptions all by mail….”
About 10 years ago, when we joined the big PPO, friends, who were longtime members suggested that whenever possible have our long term/standing rxes mailed to us and the new ones that didn’t require a consultation mailed to us. The copay cost is $10/rx and usually is a 90 day supply.
So about 98% of our rxes are now ordered by us online and are mailed to our home in 2-3 working days.
My wife and I have a small group of drugs, we will probably be on for the rest of our lives.
We order our OTC drugs from Amazon or Costco. The price determines, whom, we buy/order from. Again, the OTC drugs are mailed to us or delivered by our friendly UPS guy.
An interesting online event occurs when I price an OTC from Costco, an Amazon prime screen appears in the upper right hand corner of my monitor showing Amazon’s price with free shipping.
Often, I can get the same OTC product at less price with that little comparison.
