Actually, I have discovered that I lied (a little) in post 4. I stated there that Tenncare doctors could prescribe 30 days of medication, with two refills. NOT SO!

The actual limit is 30 days with NO refills, and a new trip to both the doctor and the pharmacist every month, which drives the costs through the roof!

This information comes from a family member on Tenncare who takes an expensive drug, and refuses to stay on a job long enough to lose his Tenncare eligibility.

Don't flame me, I have had that conversation with him.

In Memphis the eye docs send vans into neighborhoods to gather up kiddies for WEEKLY eye exams and TennCare pays for the van ride, the exam, the glasses. Then you have the GYN's doing pelvics monthly on young girls. Welfare Queens are using the docs as VERY HIGH priced baby sitters.
