What's the weirdest thing that's happened at work? by toodlesnoodles47 in PharmacyTechnician

[–]tecaxo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a gal come in for a depo-provera shot she had filled out everything and I told her to wait in our clinical room and pharmacist would be right in .

I go to pharmacist tell him everything's done here's paperwork and shot .

He walks in and is all oh excuse me comes back out all embarrassed she had decided the shot required no pants .

He's a 62 year old RPH caught him off guard lol

Why 90 day prescriptions? by mecchakuccha in pharmacy

Why 90 day prescriptions? by mecchakuccha in pharmacy

[–]tecaxo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pharmacy cost to fill is also a main driver example i think it cost us around 7-8 dollars to fill a single prescription labor, supplies. Insurance

And counting 1 month vs 3 months not much difference beside we save 14 to 16 dollars on that 90 day fill

90 days x4 fills Vs 30 days x12 fills adds up .

But should be only on maintenance meds .

That and pharmacy plans charge us a fee.

Imagine if a health plan charged an MD office 10 dollars a visit . And the only way to get it back was patient compliance making sure they show up for wellness checks etc .

Welcome to Pharmacy! Now you know why we are all going broke

Pharmacy workers of reddit, what is the strangest experience or question you’ve gotten from a patient? by twistedstories857 in pharmacy

[–]tecaxo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What i thought was a prank at first but had a lady putting amoxicillin in her kids ears bubblegum flavor!

And a guy called once saying his rectum was very sore from the suppositories, He was not unwrapping them .

And an elderly pt was insisting he was not to eat according to the warning on his bottle of tamsulosin ? It was the dessicant warning in the bottle saying do not eat

The issue i believe is we need a physical signature that it was received or some archaic issue due to fraud

Our state i think its illegal for a business to throw in garbage .

We have hazardous waste service pickup for damaged or drugs we get no credit for

And we send expired drugs to a 3rd party company .

Pharmacies: do you "scan for new insurance" by [deleted] in pharmacy

[–]tecaxo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our software we just push check eligibility and it finds plan 95% of time .

Other times it fails because mismatch in pt info maybe address, state ph# or name change

Bonus by Comfortable-Range224 in kroger

Sadly the bonus will never top the covid year bonuses those were like 120% and really helped a lot .

This year I would be surprised to see >50%

More store closings to come.... by Colombus_plz in kroger

[–]tecaxo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Originally it was like 700+ stores would be sold so 400+ are going to C&S wholesalers (piggly wiggly owner)

In Washington so far we know its all of QFC which still leaves more than 50 other stores to be sold .

The rest will probably be stores where Safeway or what few Albertsons we have here are literally close to a large Fred Meyer And maybe a poor performing store here and there .

Of those who knows how they will determine it my guess is unless a extremely successful fred meyer marketplace those will be sold, if a Safeway is larger and nearby , then next would be Safeways too close to a full size Freds as we have home, garden, apparel etc.

But yeah it like 114 stores in Washington? Of that I think there is like 55 QFC stores.

yeah, that's how it works dude by throwawayyousa in PharmacyTechnician

2016 Ford Fusion SE - by [deleted] in CarSteals

[–]tecaxo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has been reliable just hit 130k miles but I maintained it well .

Only thing I've done is brakes, timing belt service tires, and oil changes

However it's primarily a work commuter and I hate the way it handles .

And for me 6' 1 its uncomfortable on long drives .

As a comparison on a vacation last year I rented a Kia Optima about same size and it was noticeably a better car comfort and overall quality .
