pharmaceutical misadventures
our insurance has been pestering us to get 90-day prescriptions, so we did, and went to fill it today
took the prescription to the nearest pharmacy. They didn't have it in stock, fair enough, went to another one that did have it in stock
they tried to fill it, and the insurance denied it saying they only allow 30-day prescriptions.
????
but it gets better: we gave up on getting the full 90 days since we need it tomorrow (they can't do a partial fill since it's a controlled substance, so the other 60 days prescribed are just lost)
got a 30 day fill of it
and the insurance gave the pharmacist a message for us, telling her to tell us that they would *really prefer it* if we would get 90-day prescriptions
