Funny thing happened with my new health insurance coverage, and the local CVS where we usually get our prescriptions. I had a prescription renewal last month, and when I got the call it was ready, I was told it was going to be $352 and I asked why so much! I was told the insurance company said I couldn’t have it covered again until February.
Well, we have new coverage, effective January 1. So, I decided to see if I could get it paid for by the new insurance.
Went to the pharmacy, and asked the youngster who waited on me about the prescription. He got it, and I told him, about the price being $352 and I didn’t have the money, and wondered if the new insurance would pay for it.
He said, “Let me see,” and pulled it out. It was actually $3.52! He said, “Well, the old insurance must have paid for it!”
Surprise! So, I asked him should he take the new insurance card now, and he looked at it carefully.
“Next time.”
I asked, ” Why?”
“It was from last month and billed to the old insurance company. If I redo it, it will cost more under the new plan.” 🙂
God is good. CVS is as well! Or at least our pharmicists over there are, and Santa may have played a roll! God is good! 🙂
