Have BHO call CVS and tell them to shove their OTC up their ASS.


Takes effect Jan 1st. As for what I'm upset about, is high generic prescription costs. Same dosage over the counter for cheaper. I don't get it.

Are heroin prices cheaper with insurance?

Hell, we'll cover witch doctors, wing of bat and eye of newt if your employer wants us to add it to their formulary. A sizable chunk of my job is figuring how much doing so will cost them.

Your employer can also choose to cover any number of lifestyle/comfort drugs that they wish. The tricky part is paying for it.

Bear in mind, too, that you're paying "off the street" prices for your prescription - which have increased by about 10% in the last year at most of the places that give away the free generic drugs. The money has to come from somewhere.

I'm going into my third year of being uninsured, which also means I'm SOL if I need pretty much any type of medical assistance.

Neither I nor Mrs. NNN have been to the doctor since 2007.

Do you have a medical savings account.

I haven't been to the doctor in over a decade. I have insurance.

I think folks go to the doctor too frequently for things that he isn't going to do much about.
