captain soggy Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 My wife just started using champva. We sent in the RX to meds by mail and took RX for a 30 supply to be filled at walgrens while she waits for the meds by mail order to be processed. I checked the amount I had to pay compared to retail at costco and found costco to be cheaper by 70 dollars on 6 prescriptions. So for those interested you may want to check the cost from using insurance against costco for the 30 RX's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooter Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Interesting, thanks. My wife has Fibromyalgia and takes pills to go to bed and pills to get out of bed not to mention the other dozen during the day. So it might be advantage to check it out. Good info!

You can check costco prices on line just go to costco.com to pharmacy section then to " check prices" they have a list of every drug and dosage they sell.

HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted July 8, 2011 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 8, 2011 Captain Isn't it a disgrace than any vet has a co-pay for pills? The VA means tests veterans which to me makes it a welfare program. If you are an average middle class veteran you will be turned away or have to pay a co-pay. I am 100% and I still get billed for things to my insurance. I resent that so much I use the VA as little as possible except to document disabilites. That is good information about Costco.
