I was off today. I offered to fill Dad's Medrol Dose Pak prescription at the evil competitor in my home town instead of him getting blasted by his crappy prescription plan. At the pick up counter the little tart minding the counter refused to give me the prescription because I denied a need for counseling. Hmm, let's think a bit here....
The prescription is for my DAD, in other words, NOT FOR ME therefore I don't need counseling and it would be a glorious HIPAA violation if I really gave a rat's curly tail.
She still wanted to question my refusal and looked over at the pharmacist on duty even after I told her that I myself was a licensed pharmacist. Honestly people do I have to dig my license out of my wallet for proof. I have to admire her willingness to follow the regs regarding a new prescription but please, lighten up on the whole OBRA '90 will you folks??
