    Jfc. Does the gov’t not monitor insurance companies for compliance? Cause they obviously should … and fine every company 5x the amount of illegal money they stole from Americans by forcing them to pay, and reimbursing them 2x what they paid.

    I did not know that, and I and my two daughters have been paying copays for years. Now we pay the whole cost out of pocket (pills, so it’s pretty cheap) because our current insurance only covers one month at a time while we can get 4 months at a time if we pay cash.

    Being something you absolutely have to take every day to be effective, and also the apparently extreme software confusion resulting from the difference between lunar and calendar months that messes up pharmacy refill windows, not to mention travel, etc, and the fact that they are as safe as dirt, there is no reason there should be any restriction to 30 day (28 actual) supply. Now I wonder if that’s just one more way they’re getting around the law.
