All of us "Bell" folks are locked into them unless they are off into Kaiser or another HMO... I haven't had any issues, hey do push for using generics, not a bad thing, really as long as the generics pass muster... All orders are 90 day supplies, seems o work.. I mess 'em up because my Doc passes along a lot of samples, so in every 90 days, I only use 60 days, or less, Another Doc just relented, so we're trailing the generic, find out Monday if it's OK...

But as a monopoly with 130 million patients, it will be interesting to see how it's handled.. Will they be able to dictate to pharmaceuticals as far as pricing, release dates?

So far online ordering works really well...Good list to carry traveling, too..

My employer, Siemens, requires that all prescriptions which cover a period of more than 30 days must to purchased thru Medco. Now we've never had an problems and they're always prompt, so we'll see how this all works out. They also take Medicare Part-D so we use them for my mother-in-law's medication as well.
