Insurance games continue

   New York State Attorney General office called me today, we had a nice conversation. It turns out  that in NY it is illegal to force some policies (like mine) into mail order. the insurance companies found a loop hole by calling them "specialty medications" and not "mail order pharmacies". they are writing a letter to get me out of the mail order requirement and will let me know what happens.

  i called NYS ADAP, as they still don't have my paperwork (i will send again). After a nice chat they switched me over the the Pharmacy Department. i truly like NYS ADAP. They are friendly supportive people. They told me that if i ever have a problem getting meds to call them and they will pay for them and bill the insurance company. They also said that Oxford's mail order plan is actually one of the better ones to deal with. This may be true, but i would prefer my retail pharmacists over some warehouse.
