Appointment with my family Doc next Monday!

I have an appointment with him to get some meds refilled. My current Neuro is refiling my Tecfidera now and the cost through my new insurance is $8.35 (not sure if that is going to be for 1 month or 3 months yet but I will find out when it ships) so I'm happy with that either way. When I see my family doctor on Monday, I'm also going to ask him for a referral to a new Neuro :) I already know the one I want to go to as she is much more diligent and thorough than my current one is!! She actually brings the computer into the room when she sees the patient and gets past records if she doesn't have them! I know this because my ex saw her for seizures and I really liked her. Will report after Monday's appointment with my family doctor!

What new insurance if you feel comfortable telling me. I have to start looking around. I don't need a referral right now. Good luck and a great weekend.

It's my Part Medicare Part D insurance that I had to pick for the new year. The only one that would cover all my meds for this year was Express Scripts. My last plan stopped covering Tecfidera for 2018. Thanks. Hope you have a great weekend as well.

That is a great price I hope I hope it strays that low for you.

Thanks! I hope it stays that low as well. I think with the amount the insurance ends up paying on their end, I will be in the no-cost on my end soon. But I was very surprised that my cost was not higher because it is still early in the deductible faze of the year.
