I have all the requirements to use this card/benefit but my insurance (Kayser Permanente) told me that, the sales meds representative are not allowed to their premises. And for that reason, even "fitting" the requirements, I've been denied by my insurance for such discount. This need to be better explained, Thank you.
I've been talking to my insurance since Friday about this program and they said that (Kayser Permanente), they know nothing about it. After guiding them through this web site, I hope they can understand what this program is about. (Lab x insurance x lack of communication)
The program IS a bit confusing. According to GSK's helpline, people with Medicare Part D are NOT eligible for the new program, even during their gap in coverage. Instead, GSK encourages such individuals to apply for their Access program, which covers 100 percent of the cost of all GSK meds as long as people's meet certain eligibility criteria. People with questions about either program should call 888.825.5249.
Eligibility is for those who have commercial insurance,managed care or pay cash for their prescription. No one who uses Medicaid, ADAP or Medicare for prescriptions is eligible.

I can't figure out by the above who is eligible or not. It seems to contradicts itself. Does it or does it not pay for eligible out of pocket "co-pays" on a prescription for people on a Medicare Advantage Part D plan, or ADAP but might not be paid entirely under these programs? Just when and how is paid, to whom, etc. This is very confusing! Looks like double talk. Can this be made clearer?

Has been more than a month that I been trying to get this card but my health insurance is blocking it because of some stupid internal policy. We are talking about medicines, that keep people alive, enough is enough, we deserve a little bit more respect from those health insurance companies, the insurance comissioner, especially when we are paying top price. This is an absurd.
