Rite Aid Drug Store
Wrongful medication billing

Health & Medicine

I have both private medication coverage and medicare. I had a prescription filled for nebulizer medication and was charge $129.00 for the medication. I called Rite Aid back and ask what was the "original" price of the medication. They said over $300.00 I said that I thought all nebulizer meds were covered by medicare. Answer, " Medicare is no longer covering any medication without the NEW meidicare drug card. So, I called Medicare and of course they denied this, verified that the medication ordered was covered TOTALLY by medicare and that Rite Aid should know better. I called them back and they gave me another run around story. I called Medicare back again and got specific information and then called Rite Aid again. Apparently they have been billing my private insurance for year for my nebulizer medication when they were supposed to bill Medicare. They claim they will now submit the claim to Medicare but when and where the money will come and to Whom is interesting... in the mean time I am out at least $129.00.
