Steve Ariens, P.D. Pharmacist. Last Updated May 2013. TRACKING DOWN SOLUTIONS . The DEA is telling your Doctor and your Pharmacist what they can write for and how much they can give you.

About Us

http://www.steveariens.com/About_Us.html

Steve Ariens, P.D. Pharmacist. Last Updated May 2013. Having a chronic pain wife, Steve has been forced to deal first hand with a system where those who complain with chronic pain or viewed with a great deal of skepticism. Speaking with Pharmacists throughout the country, it became obvious that the vast majority would rather consider most patients taking long term opiate as "drug junkies" rather than try to figure out the legit patients from the bogus ones.

Steve Ariens, P.D. Pharmacist. Last Updated May 2013. Do you realize that denial of a medical necessary service either by a insurance company, prescriber or Pharmacist. can be considered patient/Senior abuse? Do you know that over 50% of the patients who appeal a denial of coverage, get their requested service(s) paid for? Why is this allowed to happen. because "sick patients" often do not have the physical/mental strength to fight for their rights.
