Legal Question in Consumer Law in California
Cost of medicine not disclosed prior to or upon receipt of shipment
Under my old health plan cost of growth hormone was covered 100% by insurer. Employer changed health carriers and a 30% co-payment now applies to this type of medicine. While pharmacy had previously advised that old carrier covered 100% of cost, they did not notify me regarding new carriers co-payment. They shipped 30 day supplies in aug, sept and oct. On 11/8/02, the finally sent me a bill advising that my co-pay for the drug was $714 for EACH shipment. Today another shipment arrived. No invoice sent with any shipments. I have 4 unopened FEDEX boxes that the pharmacy advises I can not return due to Federal law. Is it legal to ship and sell a product with out disclosing its cost?

Sorry, but this is an area of law that I am not familiar with.
