CVS Caremark

Good luck with that. So you are sitting there minding your own business and you got an email from Caremark saying that you need to login to get a message. But there’s no way to do it. You’re supposed to find it under profile but there’s no secure message center option there. You see every option you can imagine for checking your prescriptions and your financial summary and so forth but no option for checking the message inbox. Well, here’s how you do it if you’d like to know: You have to go to “help center/web and account support” and compose a message; when you click send an email, at that point and that point only, SOMETIMES ( it’s unpredictable) you’ll see the inbox. Healthcare in this country has the worst implementation of software and web interface of any industry.

This really is the worst app. If you don’t have high blood pressure before using it you definitely will after. But don’t get excited- they won’t let you refill your BP meds- because of course they know better than your Dr. there is nothing simple about this app. Tell it to use facial recognition- go ahead. But it will still ask for a password that it will refuse to recognize. Want to refill a prescription? Nope! Not gonna do that even though it was last refilled 3 months ago. I am convinced they make it impossible to use so that you need more meds that the app will refuse to give you even though a medical professional prescribed them. I really really hate this app and I am forced to use it because of course. Insurance. For meds that aren’t even addictive like for BP or cholesterol. This app will completely ruin a perfectly good evening. This app will tell you to renew a med and you’ll do it then it will chastise you and say it’s too soon. This app makes you think hmmm I’d rather die than try to use it to refill a prescription.

I was mistakenly told to download this by a customer service rep. To speak to a person is nearly IMPOSSIBLE. The representative that I called to help me troubleshoot says their system shuts down 5 times a day. It took 20 minutes for him to tell me to just call my insurance. His supervisor couldn’t even help. I insisted there was some confusion and I may not be in the right department. He said CVS could not help, call my insurance. These people are horrible, I can not imagine an elderly person dealing with them😢. He laughed and said he couldn’t help and said I live in a “Coronavirus Area” ??? California ???The app constantly froze and he said I didn’t exist in the entire CVS system(actually a ten year member). People please be careful with your loved ones. He asked for a lot of personal information only to say to call someone else. The app didn’t help and just shut down when it experienced an error, in addition to taking multiple minutes to load. They clearly don’t have the infrastructure or training in this department or app. 100% DO NOT RECOMMEND.
