I have been getting my medications from Merck-Medco. Tampa, Florida, for several years through my insurance plan, Blue Cross-Blue Shield (Federal employees). The cost through my insurance plan is $12 per 3 month prescription. I have been getting Mirapex from them since September when I was first put on Mirapex. There has been no problem with this. I have been very pleased with their service. I usually mail in my prescriptions and refills, however I have called in for refills. They are always very prompt in getting them to me. A few weeks ago, I realized that I did not have any refills left on my Mirapex and I was getting to the point that I needed them very soon. I called my doctor and asked that they call in the prescription. I received the medication in about a week, and everything was fine. PS, I live in Columbia, Missouri, and retired on disability in February 1997. Federal retirees can keep their insurance, which is a life saver for us. I don't know how we would pay for my meds if we had to pay retail price for all of them. Mary Watkins ([log in to unmask])
