I received a call this afternoon on my cell from 201-891-1029. No message was left. I'm eligible to receive prescriptions from Medco/Express Scripts and have done so in the past, but not in the last 2-3 years. I'm thinking that if more calls arrive from this number, the maliciousness of their effort may be revealed. Since this problem seems to have started in 2009 and is continuing thru present day, it might actually be legit in an incompetent sort of way, which would explain why it hasn't yet been eliminated. Best regards to my fellow sufferers.
MEDCO/Express Scripts provides group prescription plans to many Federal, State, County and Municipal employers. I don't know if they do private companies, but they probably do. They call me in spurts for a few weeks and then they stop for a few months.. They are trying to get you to sign up for 90 day supplies for mail order delivery of your prescriptions. Doing so will save them money and it's cheaper for you also if you get 90 day supplies. Like I said before, they stop calling for a while after I tell them I'm not interested. It won't work for me because my doctor changes my prescriptions from time to time and I've been stuck with unused meds that I paid for because I was only into my 2nd month of a 90 day supply. MEDCO does not seem to get the message that I'm not interested, but it might be the Call Center they contract out to that's not getting the message to stop calling me. If your employer uses MEDCO/Express Scripts, the DO Not Call List restrictions do not apply to them calling you.

Received a call from this # on my cell phone. I do use Medco/express script mostly via email. Occasionally they do call about prescriptions but always on my house phone. Naturally I came here to check this # out. So I called it back and a recording came on stating they were experiencing a high volume of calls so it could be a while. The recording also stated that this was a patient assist line. Never have I heard this when I have called Medco in the past.
I am VERY skeptical and so I called the 800# from my prescription bottle. Low and behold they DID NOT try to contact me.
Good thing you hung up.
