Compliance is a huge issue because health insurance will do a lot to make you jump through huge hoops to get it. I have had prescriptions “disappear” into the CVS “specialty pharmacy” and you have to wait on the phone for hours for them to “find” it.
- maxerickson 6y agoI helped my mom deal with 2 specialty pharmacies for some Parkinson's drugs she was taking. The drugs weren't available from other pharmacies (that CVS runs one of the largest specialty pharmacies can make this confusing, but normal CVS probably don't stock it if the prescription goes to their specialty pharmacy). They present themselves as helping the patient navigate a complex drug, but in practice this just meant they had a bunch of questions to tick off each time you talked to them. Their outreach and phone tree were both pretty bad, clearly designed for high operator utilization and not customer service.
