We Have Our Way To Get Our Meds , You Ever Had To Pay Out Of Pocket For Them, For Whatever The Cause Was,?

I've had it happen to me a couple of times, I am not sure if it was my insurance with, my copay, or the company was short of supply not having enough, but I have and was a little expensive I'd say, out of pocket is a bit expensive and ran a pretty penny, it's happened a little while ago but not recently, what are your thoughts here?

Although I am slated as leave-of-absence, due to my seizures, which makes makes me still on the work books I am covered for my medications through insurance. The only bad side is, that insurance only covers generic when I pay for them. Being a Canadian, when I am admitted to a hospital the brand names are covered by our government.

In Aus you only pay a set payment. The government pays the rest. And that doesn't include the discount you get with a Health care card. Private insurance doesn't cover Drugs listed on pbs.

It depends on what the Med is. If it’s brand new, it will be more expensive than the ones on the market for years
