Anyone else out there have to deal with PharmaCare? Most likely if you get your prescriptions filled at CVS or Brooks or Walgreens... especially if you have Fallon as your HMO.
Since Fallon has switched over to PharmaCare to handle their prescriptions, we've had nothing but problems at any of the Fallon pharmacies. Most notable are:
So now I'm sitting here with a dinner that's all set and ready to go, perfectly timed for 8.30... and now it prob won't be touched until well after 9.00...
We are becoming fed up with PharmaCare at Fallon. Even though CVS is under PharmaCare now (I believe, maybe that's how they can take Fallon scrips now), we're gonna give Fallon pharmacies the finger and go to CVS, and pretty much tell them that fact. (Minus the finger... well, out in the open, at least).
Anyone else with pharmacy woes out there?
Since Fallon has switched over to PharmaCare to handle their prescriptions, we've had nothing but problems at any of the Fallon pharmacies. Most notable are:
- Colleen calls in for a refill of her Pills (yes, those pills) on a Sunday morning around 8.30. Typically this is not a problem, as it's a pre-packaged medication. We know that they like to have a 24-hour period to fill it, but as I have said, we have never had a problem with waltzing in after 6.00 pm and picking them up. Last time, they hadn't even gotten to the scrip at 6.00 pm, and told us that there would be a 45-minute wait. Naturally, Colleen gets upset at this.
- Today, Colleen has another scrip in. She dropped it off at like 4.30-ish this afternoon after an appointment, and both parties agreed that she'd pick it up after 8.00 pm today. Well, she's still sitting there at 8.40, after being told that it would be anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes for them to get around to it!

they fight about my imitrex too, but my neurologist delivered the smackdown there.
and i've decided I really, really, really, really hate the Massachusetts laws regarding painkillers. Hello, I'm prescribed these things because I need them due to chronic pain, why do you have to make my life even more of a living hell to just get the medicine? they make you feel like a goddamn criminal.
