First I need to give some background information. I have a chronic medical condition which means I need to refill my prescriptions for several expensive drugs once a month, none of these are available in generic form. I also have a high deductible insurance plan through work which includes a health savings account. I also want to say I live in a very small town that only has two pharmacies.
Yesterday I needed to refill my prescriptions for this month, and as usual, the people at this pharmacy were just lounging around and started making negative comments about the high cost of my medications. The least expensive medication isn't included in the insuranace companies formulary, and I have chosen to pay for this drug on my own, the pharmacy staff don't like this either. This includes the joke of a person who is the "store manager". Then when I payed for majority of my medications in cash and put the balance on my credit card, I was told I was making everything too complicated.
The store is owned by a small local coorporation, and I am sick of putting up with all this stuff, so when I got home I called the main office and made a complaint. I was told the situation would be handled, the company president would be told about it, and people would be disaplined. I am thinking about never going back to this store again.
My question is if I change pharmacies, can I tell the other pharmacist what happened, or do these people stick up for each other the way doctors do? Sorry it got so long.
