As of 4/14/2014 Tricare Life are DOD MANDATED to get scripts from Express Scripts or Base dispensary which is not equpiped to be handicap Senior friendly.
Meet the terrible Express Scripts, it has take them 2 weeks to fill hubby’s first 2 scripts. The rest he got at the Millington BUPERS Navy base. I get mine at the base so far, but their is no grantee that a Dispense as Written script will be refilled out of Pensacola will be DAW.
