Can we trust a pharmacist to find the right D plan for their customer

Ever been in a pharmacy? What makes you think they have time to run a thorough comparison for every Medicare covered customer?
Most of us take pride in doing the right thing for our clients. Running Part D comparisons isn’t fun, but it adds value and clients appreciate you making sure they are saving the most money on their prescriptions.

Does anyone think the pharmacist at Walgreens for CVS would ever recomment the Humana Walmart Plan? hahaha
Eventually you will no longer need to keep sucking from the forum nipple.
You create 5 threads a day asking rookie questions, and never once seen you reply to other threads with any value.
Dont worry, I will hang around for another 9 yrs and wait for that prized moment.

There's an image I won't be able to shake for a while . . .
Why ask for a list when the meds are probably sitting right on the kitchen table or in a basket on the fridge? You're wasting time trying to save time.
However, I do understand the hassle you might go through trying to get a client to give you the right info on the drugs over the phone. If you learn your plans, soon you will be able to pretty much figure out the plan they need by the meds. In the beginning you will probably fumble around, but once you really get going, should be easy.
Most folks know what they are taking. They may have to look at the bottle to see the dosage, or the generic name, but they know what they are taking and what it is for.
I always ask them to send me an email with their med's . . . so I don't have to ask them to spell anything that is not aspirin. Sometimes they say "I only take one, let me give it to you now.", which is fine. But I still prefer to get their list via email so there is never any question about missing a drug that was left off.

^^^This. I always get the list so that if they come back a few months later and complain about a medication being highly priced or not covered, I can show them the list they sent me. Doesn't happen often, but occasionally people will forget a medication.
I also encourage them to review the comparison I send them so they can double check the medication list. This way we can catch it BEFORE we enroll them in a plan and they are stuck for the year.

If you help people with their Part D each year, their Med Supp will be cemented to you forever!
I have well over 2,000 active med supps. The only people to leave me either die or move out of state.
