BINGO, and Tricare can change your meds without telling you. Hubby’s Whelcol went from a White tablet to a Orange 1.
My Linzess that empties the Paralyzed Colon, needed a Letter of Prior Authorization from the Gastro, he sent one in. They needed MORE info. That got sent in too, We get back a letter from Express Scripts MORE info is needed. Finally today there is a letter saying it is approved. I’ve been taking Linzess for over 2 yrs, never needed Prior Authorization.
That SIBO antibiotic generic is $1,500 for 2 weeks, it must be gotten from the base Pharmacy, which is a Old WW 2 walk in not retrofitted as Handicapped Friendly. The new Check in System that caused Chaos because NO core man was assigned to show people how to use it has been broken for 3 months now. They did add a 3rd row of Hard Plastic seats. It is designed for Walk in’s. Not wheelchairs, Oxy tanks. They remodeled the entire Exchange, but NOT the Pharmacy last year. More Spaces were assigned for Brass parking, leaving fewer for Handicapped who were DoD Mandated to use the Base Pharmacy a few years ago. Now 2 people man the counter, 1 intake, 1 hand out scripts. You call Pensacola for Refills 5 days early. Few Trust Express Scripts because they are not a good place to deal with if you use Auto Pay or Credit Cards, Use only checks after you receive your meds, IF the USPS can find the RIGHT HOUSE. Takes them 2 weeks to fill a script and 2 weeks for a Refill.
Thankfully this is a higher Military Retirement area and we all just take each others Meds over to their homes. If your med has to be refrigerated it comes in a dry ice Styrofoam box.
Just a thought. Maybe one of yo guys can organize all the retirees and compile a large list of complaints about Tricare and Script then send it to PDJT. You might get a full investigation started and resolution to the problems.
