There are two huge points to be made about this:
Unless I can pay my fucking house payment and put food on the table
using “Good Deeds” as a currency, Im not going to take a loss
filling a prescription. That little lady, when push comes to shove,
doesn’t really give two dicks about you, your kids, your store, or
the good deeds you do for her. She wants her fucking dope, plain and
simple, and she doesn’t want to pay for it. By you taking that
loss, you have just shown her that your time/profession/skills are worth
nothing to her. In fact, you’re just a fucking whore to her and her
insurance who takes a fucking and then gives $100 for the privilege of
getting your asshole reamed out. Its reverse prostitution, and we as a
profession are better than that. Well, I used to think better than
that, until the chains started handing out gift cards to PITA patients
instead of backing up their abused staff and showing these fucks the
door. Grow a fucking pair chains!
By refusing to fill the Rx based on losing money, you are putting
the ball in her court. The insurance companies dont give a fuck about
the pharmacies, but they give a fuck when she gets on the phone and
cries that nobody will fill her medication. SHE pays their paychecks,
not us. A problem with HER insurance reimbursing is not OUR problem,
its HERS. Does the grocery store give a fuck that your credit card was
stolen by hackers who got into the Target systems and thereby wont work?
No, because its YOUR credit card through YOUR bank so its YOUR
responsibility to take care of that shit. If enough patients complain
and whine then maybe they will do something about it. Yeah, and I can
pull gold out of my asshole.
