Stalkers much?
Besides... I'd bet if you were on the list you might be thinking differently. - oxdeltaxo, on 11/07/2008, -0/+2If someone who is a high value target (rich, well off) is on that list , that list becomes extremely useful to a black mailer.
- mal1964, on 11/07/2008, -0/+2Que up cheesy TV ads for law offices
- ncc74656m, on 11/07/2008, -0/+2Sounds to me if true like your insurance company works with them, and thinks that your scripts are supposed to be processed by mail. I would check with them.
- slvrbullet87, on 11/07/2008, -0/+2If they manage to get your script every time you order it either somebody at your doctors office or somebody at CVS is giving them the heads up... Try having your doctor send the next one to walgreens/walmart instead... if it happens then you might want to get a new doctor
- chicagojack, on 11/07/2008, -3/+5if its MILLIONS, who cares. Is anyone really going to look at that many names???
- inactive, on 11/07/2008, -0/+1are they positive?
- evilrobot, on 11/07/2008, -0/+1This is an AWFUL company to begin with. I dont know how; since my Dr. NEVER faxes to them or and I never authorized them; but EVERY time I get a prescription; I have it faxe3d to my local CVS; I pick up my script and think its all good... usually like clockwork 3 days later a box from ExpressScipts appears full of the medicine that i already picked up; and with a VERY high invoice attached.
CVS doesn't know how they get the script; my DR doesn't know how they get the script...
...So; i mean - they're already a shady company. - BlatheringIdiot, on 11/08/2008, -0/+1Sooo- extortion plot- either they sting or pay- why the publicity? to scare the 17 YO hacker?
- BaoUnit, on 11/07/2008, -0/+1HIV positive? Yes, some of them.
- kelvlam, on 02/23/2009, -0/+1I dunno how this HUGE news flew under my radar for 3-months... not until I saw a commentary on the current issue of PC World then did I look it up... =(

Its interesting the amount of information you have access to. One could just write down this info over the course of a day as they fulfill prescriptions. I would never be dumbass enough to try something though.... I like my decent pay (better than retail) and awesome benefits. - TheBogie, on 11/07/2008, -0/+0What a d-bag.

http://www.hotsmusic.com/ - nhavar, on 11/07/2008, -0/+0Express Scripts is probably your prescription benefit manager under your particular insurance plan. Every time a script is filled it ends up in the PBM's system for claims adjudication. The PBM then adjudicates the script claim and facilitates payment to the retail pharmacy.
The problem with your particular scenario is that the PBM doesn't just send out medications based on the claim information. They actually have to have a script in hand from either the doctor or a script explicitly transferred from the retail pharmacy in order to enact an order.
The only other way this could happen is if your insurer has set up Exclusive Home Delivery with the PBM. In that case you wouldn't be able to get more than one refill locally and the pharmacy would let you know that when you filled.
The easiest way to figure out what's going on would probably be to log into their website or call your insurer. - inactive, on 11/07/2008, -0/+0That's a lot of information, meaningful or not.
- CrystalP, on 03/26/2009, -0/+0i really like this comment... and by the way, i found this site
