I fought DURING the pandemic for my son to get the medication he needs. They were out of the name brand, so they tried to give him the generic but insurance wouldn't approve that so the doctor had to write A NEW PRESCRIPTION FOR THE BLOODY GENERIC.
and waited an hour only to be told, they needed pre-authorization from the insurance so I called the doctor again and had to leave a message and then I left because I was fucking tired.
I would gladly pay more for necessities IF in the run of things, it meant that everyone could get what they needed. Still not authorized. I don't need it but it makes things a pain in the butt
