I have heard numerous reports of folks with different insurance being denied at the pharmacy. Which means that a number of people I know are already “off their meds.”
This is not going to be pretty folks. Seriously, someone needs to get on this.

Why is this happening, do you know?

Indeed .. such a statement isn’t very helpful. You could actually go ask at one or two pharmacies if they know what is happening?

I’ll venture a guess and say it has something to do with the fallout from the failed Walgreens/Express Scripts contract negotiation.

My guess too. Most places with Walgreens probably have a nearby CVS, Rite Aid, or other pharmacy that takes ES though…
