Husband did upfront meds in March 2014...they did not ask for redo until Jun2015...which he did right away...then he was asked to complete it a third time in July2015...when he went to the CIC dr and there was no request in the emedical file...CIC Dr said they could not just redo meds without a request for info...after 2.5 months of trying to figure out what CIC wanted with the help of the Dr and the CIC help desk, we found out that they could not open the attacnment and we had to mail the Medical, well the CIC Dr had to mail the medical...We went Medical rec'd 05NOV2015...

In our case the doctor sent 2nd meds right away...CIC has 30 to 90 days to review remeds....ours could not open the attachment so they sent a third request and had another 30 to 90 days to review....CIC did not even respond to their own help desk or CIC dr for 2.5 months...so yeah it can delay things...
