Quick insurance question...

Express scripts actually called us and said WE HAD to go thru them for maintenance med's. We have been and still are going thru a local pharamcy that was approved thru my husbands employer. So make sure you actually have to go thru them, may want to check your work handbook.

Just a thought

Thanks Melissa,



We have always had Express Scripts as our provider, but since the first of the year we are now also being told we have to use the Express Scripts mail order pharmacy for all maintenance meds. Do you use the pharmacy as well, or are you still working with CF Services pharmacy to get your scripts?</end quote></div>

I never used mail order. I dont schedule things well enough to do that LOL! I only used CF Pharmacy for my HS and that was because it was easier. My local Eckerds had a problem. Point being that I could have used CF Pharmacy for anything tho. I think it depends on the Plan Administrator, but there is usually ways around it. Problem is people dont feel like the hassle! Good Luck!

Don't know much about insurance carriers reversing decisions about ordering. BUT I just wanted to tell you that I've had nothing but problems with Express Scripts. Their customer service is awful. Make sure you write down names, dates and times you speak with them because most likely you'll get 2 or 3 different stories for just one problem.

I hope you have better luck with them than I have!
