    Default Prescriptions -- Bad news and good news


    I went to the Pharmacy to get a refill for one of mine... The Cost had gone up which was not expected.. while talking with the Pharmacy Clerk he told me the Donut Hole on Prescriptions were suppose to go away by 2020.. When I told the wife she checked it out through Humanna , and we will start getting her Prescriptions through them... She has 10 meds she has to take Daily... What will take place is you will then pay 25% of the total cost of the drug you use on a daily basis. She now reaches the Donut hole in 3 Months so for the rest of the year we have had to pay full price for her meds. which is good news, it will be started next year, In 2019 ---- Where the bad news is-- for anyone that has very few Prescriptions that cost will increase from what they Pay to the new cost of 25% of the total cost... Her Meds will be delivered monthly by mail, and when a Doctor needs to be contacted for Refills, They take care of it in plenty of time before you run out

    Sad is what it cost the drug manufacture to have a thousand fold what it cost them in materials --- the Robbery comes because of Law Suits -- but those family's with high Prescription cost will finally get a break
