ABOUT THIS BILL:
· It is called “Anti-Mandatory Mail Order” or AMMO.
· It passed with only TWO legislators voting against it!
· It prevents insurance companies from FORCING you to use mail order
· It allows you to CHOOSE to get 90 day supplies for the SAME COPAYS at your LOCAL PHARMACY
· There are NO mail order facilities except for one small call center in Troy. Millions of dollars leave the state every year.
· Mail order facilities increase profits for insurance companies WITHOUT passing savings on to you
· A HUGE percentage of medication waste comes from MAIL ORDER PHARMACIES!
