More Medco Weirdness

I switched from Zocor and Zetia to Vytorin (yes, I feel like a drug commercial). I was told by Medco that it would be a $100.00 copay since it was nonformulary. Formulary copays are $62.50, for it wasn't much of a savings, so I was torn.

I got the "bill" off the internet today and they charged non-formulary price, so now I'm getting two drugs for the price of one formulary copay ($62.50) -- NOT bad. But I wonder why they didn't tell me that. Weird....

And the depo arrived today -- at least it's on the doorstep -- husband will have to bring it in. Apparenlty the generic isn't available yet, but it was $42.00 instead of $56 which is what the regular pharmacy charges. Since it is cheaper than a copay, I pay for the cost.
