Dear susie29526, Not having seen the commercial, I may not be clear on what they are saying, but, my VA healthcare sends my prescriptions directly to me via mail, and I don't even have to go to a drugstore. That is a big benefit to me, and many other veterans. Is it possible for you to get your prescriptions by mail? Here's a link to VA prescriptions: http://www.va.gov/healthbenefits/access/prescriptions.asp |

In Response to prescriptions: i dont know how many people have seen the new walgreens commercial about how they created the first non-profit pharmacy for our "troops" but it sure did strike a nerve with me since this past december they were unwilling to strike a deal with the military insurance. i had to change all my scripts over to cvs pharmacy and it just did not sit well with me about that commercial. susan Posted by susie29526 Haven't seen the commercial either but the VA Meds By Mail like BettyCM said is the way to go. |
