How could anyone NOT know? Why, the entire *universe* is organized under it:

They don’t, even those who live near Military bases. Doc’s are the most stupid on that too. Tell them it’s a DOD MANDATE and they get a puzzled look on their faces, give them a Formulary and they can’t figure out how to script for it. How hard is it to divide 5 mg Valium pills into 20 mg pills per day and month? 4 pills per day, 120 per month. Or that it requires a paper script, not E-script.
What makes me so mad is a medical need is called a ‘cosmetic’ and not covered. Messed up cataract lenses needed touched up via Lasix as it is cheaper, less dangerous than trying to replace them, you guessed it I had to pay $5K for it. And will still need bifocals in 3 months. That I will pay for too. Hey at least lets do a co-pay. That is my retirement money I had to dig into.
