[QUOTE="DriveInDriѵeOut, post: 1202978, member: 44954"] The union is in control of the healthcare now. It's in all of our best interest for TeamCare to be paying the least amount possible for medications... even though your copay doesn't change, the cost from store to store does. Mail order prescriptions cost TeamCare less for many reason, one of which is a lower negotiated cost due to the lack of overhead associated with a brick and mortar store. Just like stuff is cheaper online because they don't have to operate an actual store, mail order prescriptions are also cheaper. I get that the change alone is an inconvenience at first, but it's really not that big of a deal. When you go to the doctor to get the prescription, just take the form with you..... they should fill it out and fax it in to Caremark for you. As long as you don't wait until the last minute for your medicine to run out, waiting on the next 30-90 day supply to get to you shouldn't be an issue. [/QUOTE]
