I know what you are going through. I had to get new ins. for mom on 1/1/09 plus a perscription plan and i have been fighting with them for the last couple of weeks, it was going to cost mom over $2300 to get her meds for 3 months and then they kept coming up with one exscuse after another as to why they would not ship them, had to have prior authorization from Dr., had to authorize charge card, they were suppose to over night them to the NH but it was not going through to their accounting and since it was a Friday it would take another 3-5 days just to ship them over night, i said no way just cancel everything and i would find a new perscription plan. I did everything that i was suppose to, i had a months supply of her meds at the NH when her medicare stopped paying for everything which was on Dec 14th thinking that by Jan 14th she would have the meds from her new plan but we never recieved them, we have been keeping her in meds with either CVS or the NH pharmasy which is more expensive. I hate ins companies but how are people suppose to live without them. I talked to an ins guy today and he gave me a web site to check out it's www.indiana insurance commisoners.com i haven't checked it out yet so don't know what it's about, he also said that if you contact some of the companies like Nexium is very expensive, if you contact the company sometimes you can get the meds much cheaper by going directly through them, only thing is you have to qualify. I am still searching for mom a script plan . I hope you can get some kind of help with your meds.
