Relatively new to Medicare and newly diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.
The prescriptions went to CVS which is the preferred pharmacist for the Wellcare part D insurance.
The blood monitoring meter and test strips are covered under Medicare Part B, so paid for 80% by Medicare and 20% by the Medigap policy, but CVS wouldn't take the Medigap card for the supplemental insurance - is this normal?
It wasn't a lot of money in this instance, but in principle shouldn't my Plan G pay? Do other pharmacies take the Medigap insurance to cover the 20% that Medicare doesn't?
I'm sure some knowledgeable person on here will have been through this before... thanks
