Now on KHN's blog, KQED's Sarah Varney, reporting as part of a partnership with Kaiser Health News, NPR and KQED, filed a story about how millions of consumers are realizing the Walgreens is no longer part of their prescription drug network. She writes: "If you're heading into a Walgreens to pick up a prescription, you may first want to check the back of your insurance card. If it says Express Scripts, you can no longer fill your prescription at Walgreens or affiliates like Duane Reade under your insurance plan" (1/9). Check out what else is on the blog.
