Sly it was only a few years back that it didn't cover anything at the pharmacy.
Insurance was supposed to be a "just in case" emergency plan for a catastrophic occurrence.
But we (the consumers in the USA) have been manipulated into a situation where EVERYTHING is "covered" by insurance, and they price gouge us so we can't afford to just pay for it ourselves (like I always did in the past).
Insurance SHOULDN'T "cover" our prescription medications.
And our prescriptions SHOULDN'T cost us many times over what every other country in the world pays for the same exact brand name medicines.
It's a big, well orchestrated rip-off. And the govt. doesn't "fix" it because they are all in on it (yes, even "baby jesus" obama).
