[Diabetes-talk] Major problem Help please

[Joy Stigile]

Dear Joyce,

Maybe the person you told that you would be paying the shelf price did not 
pass the message along.  While I was waiting for my Prodigy strips from the 
Medicare approved company to arrive I had to order Prodigy strips from my 
local pharmacy.  My local pharmacy is no longer able to bill Medicare.  So, 
I had to pay the shelf price.

Warmly, Joy
