Definitely good advice. I would suggest calling or going online and getting a print out of your insurance's formulary (basically a listing of all the drugs they cover and which tier drug it is- usually the higher the tier the more you pay for it). Then give this list to your doctor to put in your medical file. That way if they need to switch around your drugs, they can refer to the list as to what your insurance will cover.
The formulary changes every year, so when you re-enroll in your health insurance, get a new formulary.
I will now get off my HR soapbox!
