and once did. Now they lose stuff.

I get meds sent from the VA and I can see the shipping dates-- a bunch of stuff was sent on 10/30 and I just got them this week One of them yesterday. Insulin was sent on 10/30, and I still haven't gotten it. Most of the stuff is generic and some is even cheaper at Rite-Aid than my VA copay, so I'm soon going that route, but that insulin costs a bundle. I'll have to see what it costs with Medicare kicking in.

The local PO tries to help, but tells me it's all because everything is now being rerouted to save money.
