I am Tricare for Life military health…
I am Tricare for Life military health insurance since May 2022. For the last 5 years my quarterly prescription drug copay has remained constant at 7.45 for three medications. Today I went to refill my three prescriptions at Walgreens and the copay rose to 42.30. An approximate 550% increase. I called Tricare and they said it is a Walgreen's increase due to drug compounds. So, here you go whereby a contracted drug store can increase a beneficiary's drug cost by this obscene amount on a dime's notice. Well, now I will bite the bullet and deal with the local military pharmacy, which is not a pleasant experience due to incredible bureaucracy, 60 miles away to get it for free.
