Did I mention that one of the bottles of eye drops I need for tomorrow’s surgery cost $375? Insurance doesn’t cover it. At all.

Fortunately, I found a Bausch and Lomb program that brings the cost down to $80. EIGHTY DOLLARS!

This is the problem with “big pharma.”

@AlliFlowers That's outrageous!
One of my meds had a $400 copay and then the ins refused to cover it at all.

@pburke46 And it happens regularly. Two months ago I paid $190 for a colonoscopy prep.

I don’t know how people who are less fortunate than I am can stay healthy.

@AlliFlowers I'm sure some people have to go without. It's really horrible and sad.

@AlliFlowers
And, for some unknown reason, the English government seem hell bent on taking the U.K. health system in a similar direction! 🤷‍♂️
