I'm a type 1 diabetic with excellent control. My current copay for each of my diabetic prescriptions are $150.00 each. The five scripts that I do fill would be cost $750.00 per month. I don't fill 2 other scripts that my Dr wants due to these high costs. After talking with BCBS, my employer and our rep I was told that the only way to cut these costs is to go to Express Scripts. Ugh!! Their are no generic or less expensive medications. I have tried Express Scripts before with much frustration due to poor customer service. They try to get paid upfront and want to send scripts automatically. BCBS has some type of relationship with Express Script which does not help the insured. Due to the slow processing time of Express Scripts I will be out of my bolus insulin before express scripts even ships. Due to their "banker hours" I couldn't contact anyone today. Until they had an automated call to have me prepay scripts they will be processing. They told me they will only "bill" up to $150.00, that's one script. So I will have to prepay going forward. I have already spent an hour and a half this morning trying to get insulin that I need. Right now I don't know if I will be able to get a vile of this insulin or if I will have to come up with my own dosing plan until it arrives. If I do this I may run out of that insulin before Express Scripts delivers. If that happens I guess I will just check into the hospital for my insulin, that surely wont save BCBS money. Just plain poor healthcare by BCBS and Express Scripts
