Prescription Drugs.........

[gja1000]

Linda, that is absolutely ludicrous!!!! Going from $50 to $250 - that is a 500% increase. NO insurance company needs that much more money!!!!! I'd be calling the insurance commissioner or SOMEONE to complain loudly about this company!!!!

That said, is the $250 a new deductible of some sort??? I know my prescription meds are expensive the first time I get them filled in the new year ($150, I think) - but after that first time, they are more reasonable ($50 per 3 mo fill, I think).

My husband's prescription plan just went from $35 for a 3 month supply to $65 for 3 months - BUT the generic brands are FREE for the first four fills so that means, they are free for the year as you get 3 months at a time. I guess it is a way to push for cheaper generic meds. However, my husband has 7 medications that do not have a generic equivalent.

If our country does not do something about health care, we are in BIG trouble!!!
