This is the 3rd time in the past year that me or a family member has needed prior authorization for a medication.
Each time no one told us that. The pharmacy just says its not covered.
It's only after we contact the doctor that we learn oh yeah they need to submit it.
Then we get a call from the insurance company that its been approved.
So we go back to the pharmacy and they just tell us its not covered.
We say yes it is you need to run it through again.
They just stand there and look at us like we are stupid and say no its not covered.
Then we have to call the insurance company and tell them to call the pharmacy and tell them to run it through the system again.
This ends up being a several week ordeal.
Is it just us lol?
