Yes, soup, it is despicable. Insurance also denied lamictal because my dr only ordered a 30 day supply, and they will only cover 90 day prescriptions. No logical explanation for that one. And it seems to be applied randomly, since I just got 30 days of seroquel and ambien with no problem for $4. Like, why lamictal and depakote but not anything else?

Edit: called my insurance...the guy couldn’t explain it beyond “that’s your plan”. He did clarify that once I refill the same prescription twice, it becomes “maintenance” and thus is subjected to the 90 day rule.

Fun fact: I called the other pharmacy across the street and asked them to have the incompetence pharmacy transfer the prescription so they could fill it and I’ll pay out of pocket. $60 mind you. Pharmacist said sure, but warned me that she’s been on hold with them for over an hour for another patient. So...they’re essentially holding my prescription hostage.
