...because stupid people shouldn't breed, EVER!
Most of our prescription drug plans have a two fill limit at retail, after that, you have to use the mail order service. SC's KNOW THIS, they are told it over and over again, yet it never fails, someone, somewhere tries to get us to "make an exception" for them. (Sorry, no can do, your employer makes these rules, we just enforce them. Only an account manager can make an exception, and she usually laughs when you ask) I'm thinking we should maybe be a little more flexible because there are some scary stupid people out there who should be on mandatory birth control. Here are just a couple of fun examples.
1. "If my 14 year old daughter gets pregnant, I'll sue!"
Yes, a woman actually threatened to sue if her 14 year old daughter got pregnant because her birth control pills couldn't be filled at retail anymore. So very, very wrong for so many reasons...
2. "Because you're an ADULT, that's why!"
I still want to beat this woman. A lady called because her prescription for bc had been denied at the pharmacy due to the two fill limit. I explain the two fill rule to her, and she demands an exception
Now keep in mind, this woman is 35, with a child.
Moron: Well, how was I supposed to know that this was my second fill? I need my birth control pills!
Me: Well, ma'am you can always pay full price for them at the pharmacy, but from now on if you want them to be covered under your insurance, you'll have to use the mail order system.
Moron: But I didn't know! (yeah right) What am I supposed to do in the mean time? (PAY FOR IT LIKE I JUST SAID, DUMMY)
Me: Ma'am, again, you'll have to pay for it out of pocket. We can not make exceptions to the annual fill limit!
Moron: NO ONE told me this! Why should I have to keep track of my own medications?
BECAUSE YOU'RE A GROWN EFFING WOMAN, THAT'S WHY!
I actually put it a little more nicely when I answered her.
Me: I'm sorry, but that is your responsibility. You can always go to our website or call us back if you have questions.
Moron: *click*
And she had a kid, too! Poor thing. I hope she just paid for her pills, that lady has no business raising a gerbil, much less another child because she was lazy/ignorant/irresponsible.
