simply ask if the meds being prescribed are the same as last year for any given procedure.

If it is not ask for samples or a generic or an Rx for the meds they used last year.

Most often the new meds just are not in the insurance formularies yet....but will be.

There is absolutely no reason to pay big $$$ for the latest and greatest.

The doctor will not refute your request.
