My Husband and I are both on Tricare for life and medicare. I have noticed also that medicare pays less than half than what the doctors charge. My husband has maculah (sp) degeneration in his right eye and has to go to a civilian Retina clinic every six weeks for shots in his eyes
I’m fighting with Express Scripts over covering my Linzess, they required a Prior Authorization letter, which the Gastro sent them, it was insufficient, they need more info, What more do you need than the Colon is Paralyzed from Gastropresis and Linzess has the least side effects comes in more strengths? I’ve taken it over 2+ yrs to dump the colon that doesn’t work. Now you want a Prior Authorization you are just going to TURN DOWN ANYWAY? If my colon doesn’t empty it will RUPTURE. Then you have ER surgery, Sepsis, or death. If it would do any good to CALL Kustoff’s office I’d have done it, he’s to busy with PHOTO OPS. Lamar is retiring, Blackburn worthless. Calling TRICARE LIFE IS NOT AN OPTION.
