Amazon pharmacy is probably one of the best interactions I’ve had with Amazon and pharmacies in general. We moved everything we could to it. The support has been great. Get things quickly all the information is right up front.
I have a migraine medicine (Qulipta) and have gone through half a dozen pharmacies in the last two years. The fact that I have both insurance and a manufacturers coupon seems to screw them all up, and several just stopped doing migraine meds. I am not functional without this medicine. I would literally qualify as disabled since I have migraines so often. Even two days of not having the med throws me off for a full week.
Without insurance or the coupon it's $1600/month. With insurance it's $650/month. With the coupon and insurance it's $0/month.
Amazon is the only pharmacy that didn't mess up the insurance. They also autoship on time every month. I'm not even joking when I say that I actually cried over how difficult it was with other pharmacies.

Clearly they were spending too much money on it. The idea is for there to be no interaction other than a payment/delivery cycle. If there are plural positive interactions the overall system was poor (needed multiple interactions) and staffing too expensive ("best" rather than mediocre).
Agree. I also use PillPack for my recurring meds, also an Amazon company. The standard for medical company interactions is a very low bar, but both companies kill it every time.
