I just enrolled in my Rally health thing to earn money toward my HSA 

Hey! That's my company!

I am on a very very warm bus ugh. On the other hand, it is in Ireland so yay!!!

Umbrellas are handy.

Ireland! I really have to do that someday. Relatives and all that.

Maybe the other box will be full of rain, Hil.

Hil, I saw your post on Facebook -- if it's after 11:30, I can pick you up and take you home. Monfort Heights is right around the corner (relatively speaking) from me. I have therapy Thursday mornings, but I'm done by 11, so (leaving a margin for traffic/error/etc), I can get you by 11:30, or any time after that.

Lisah I actually kind of like it. I just should have started it sooner for more money.

It took me a minute to figure out which things my employer will pay for but I have those all now.

I really need to stop calling insurance companies before work.

So I found out that with CVs/Caremark if you are on maintenance prescription you have to get a 90 day mail order supply. My doctor won't give me refills for my meds so I'm not sure how that is supposed to work. But you also have to pay upfront . Until my deductible kicks in a 90 day supply of Vyvanse is $700.

They don't accept the discount coupon for the medicine via mail order. Or they can but only if it's sent as a check and the guy didn't know much about that . Supposedly doing this saves money.

I hate our for profit health care industry.

you have to get a 90 day mail order supply. My doctor won't give me refills for my meds so I'm not sure how that is supposed to work.

Your doctor should be able to write a scrip for a 90-day supply, especially if you explain that your insurance requires it. And if it's CVS Caremark, can you pick it up at a CVS, assuming you have those where you live?

When we were in the remote wildness of eastern Washington, that was the plan we were on, and when we inevitably called to complain, they'd say, "Oh, but you can just go to your local CVS," and we'd have to explain AGAIN that there were no CVS stores where we lived.

There is a CVS across from Walgreens. The big issue is not being able to use a coupon with the mail order. Even if I could pick it up I would be using the coupon because I can't afford $200ish a month for one prescription.

I may use Walgreens for this month and try to figure out something.

On top of that my period started and it's hell. Cramps, nausea, I'm grumpy, and I took something a couple of hours ago and it did nothing. I want to crawl in bed with an hot water bottle but we are short handed and no one is coming until I get off. Well they will in other departments but they need me here.

Can you get samples from your doctor?

I don't think she can.

I think if I don't go through insurance and just use the coupon thing it will be $50 or $75. I think. I sti haven't called Walgreens because I had cramps from hell today. I'll try Sunday.

If it's going to be that range I'll do that and skip insurance . It won't go to my deductible but I won't hit the deductible by the end of the year anyway.
