Days are good and days are not so good and some...


…are just plain rotten! Today was one of those days. I wrote a letter about what I felt was an exorbitant cost of a particular medication, Nexium, and mailed it less than a week ago, and today I got the results of their, my insurance company’s wrath! United HealthCare Options PPO the federally funded but also funded by us by charging a $432 a month premium and $500 deductible on my medications! Screwing up my called in prescriptions saying that there was a billing problem, yep too much money being paid to those idiots! I do believe I have gotten most all of it straightened out and I will be receiving my Copaxone on Wednesday that is being co-paid by The Assistance Fund, so that was NO billing issue since they are paying otherwise the co-pay would be over $100! They will only order one month, since they are afraid I am canceling my policy I suspect! Who knows, not even me now… But they lied to their personnel saying it was a billing problem… and as far as my Gabapentin went they would not accept my doctor’s nurse trying time after time to order a prescription that if out of it I could definitely have a horrid negative reaction! It is for preventing seizures, but for MS for me, who knows what the negative affects would be! How dare them! They have been paid and than some, more than seven hundred dollars on most all of these prescriptions, since January! Considering that I was told my co-pay on the Gabapentin for a three months supply was only $10 and one month only $4! What type of people runs these companies; I think that they are heartless, horrid people, in my opinion. My heart cannot take another day like this; I don’t know what I should do. Perhaps, they made my choice for me and I should cut my losses and choose the old road of how I was… still fighting for myself but with less $$$$$$ letting me feel as if I am being financially raped. The other way was aggravating too though, and yes I do remember. People thought you were some kind of terrible for not having insurance and treated you that way! What happened to kindness and understanding? I am so exhausted, please forgive this rant… I was still talking to Accredo a specialty portion of Medco that was taking care of my Copaxone, I hope! The fellow there said I will be receiving my delivery Wednesday. Yep, I am the one who did this with that letter… but now what? Too tired and I just want to cry and perhaps die, it would make things that much easier for everyone. No one would have to deal with me…seriously; all I ever wanted is to get my medical needs met. It’s making me crazy! Good night.
