July 7, there was a mistake when Shawn picked up my Lovenox. I wasn't feeling well, Shannon's family had just arrived, and mostly I was in shock to have suddenly arrived in the "donut hole" of part D, the drug part of Medicare's structure in my insurance. (My prescription went from $9 to hundreds of $$$.) Even thought I checked with the pharmacy and the insurance company, I didn't realize this problem. The last few days I realized that my thought that 10 injections cost $227 was incorrect. It was really for 30 with the graduation into the donut hole, however they only gave Shawn 10-1 box instead of 30-3 boxes. My call to the pharmacist got me nowhere. She said that they had no extras and was to get back with me about the cost and if they could help any more. Today Shannon called the store manager. They reviewed tapes, etc. and decided that there is no way that there could have been 3 boxes in the one sack that went out to Shawn at the window, so they gave her the 2 other boxes. Yeah!!!!!! $600 saved and not down the tube! I'm so grateful.
