Anything you want apparently. My doctor has prescribed me seven pills to keep body and soul together. I had been getting them for free thru Medicare Advantage. Then all of a sudden, my Visa got zapped for $180 on the last refill. Ouch.
So it being time for new prescriptions anyhow, I took the new ones down to Walmart. After a half an hour (spent browsing Walmart) they gave me a grocery bag full of pills and paperwork, for a mere $81. For three months worth. Not so bad.
So before I put all the new pills in the medicine cabinet I read some of the paperwork. Each bottle of pills comes with four pages of paperwork, run off on the pharmacy's laserprinter. Aside from the name of the pill and a number, the paperwork is all the same. Boilerplate. I should be happy that despite this government required cost enhancement Walmart is still cheaper than Medicare Advantage.
