emergency.
Piss poor planning is not an emergency. There have been months to get this figured out.

think by law they can’t prescribe anything if you haven’t seen them in a year...but from what I understand a pharmacy has to give you insulin in an emergency.
No and no. It's about reimbursement, liability, and standards of care to have regular labs and visit within a specific time, not really law. It's good practice but they are allowed to make exceptions for a situation like refilling insulin when the patient has a damn appointment scheduled.
Pharmacy can only sell 3 types of insulin OTC and the concentrate OP uses is not one of them. It is extremely expensive product and if the Dr responded to a refill request by refusing it, the pharmacist can't bill insurance, that's fraud- and would be violating pharmacy law by dispensing without valid prescription.
Pharmacists can continue prescriptions during a declared state of emergency, not to accommodate an obstinate refill gatekeeper at the clinic.
