I am in transition from one insurance to another, I was supposed to have my first fill appt tomorrow but I haven't heard from my new insurance yet. My question is does anyone know what a fill costs out of pocket? If I reschedule this I can't get seen until July 5th :( Thanks.

I've heard all different prices on that come through this forum. The best thing you can do is call your doctor's office & find out what they charge

I would definitely call the office and find out their charges.

For me, it costs $115. They charge me a $40 co pay when I walk in the door and if I get a full they charge me $75 more. :-(

My doctor charges $75 out of pocket for a fill, but I heard most charge around $100-$115 in my area

I've heard about $100 pretty consistently.

Thanks everyone. I did call the office yesterday twice, left two messages and no one called me back :( So I ended up going through the scheduling department and moving it out until July 5th.....so bummed and hope I can control these hunger pains until then :wacko:

Seems to me that you shouldn't have to wait three weeks for a fill. Don't they answer the phone? My suggestion.....KEEP calling. When I've needed a fill, I never waited more than 2-3 days. One day (luck of the draw), they got me in the same day.

Keep trying! As they say..... "the squeaky wheel gets the grease" (so to speak).

Good luck. I know how frustrated you must feel.

My dr charges a LOT. with my high deductible my oop is $425! That was a big shock to me so you are wise to reschedule until y know more!
