1. All insurance plans have formularies

And have for many many years.

This is bull.

[MrsKirkley]

12. agreed

2. I don't know enough to know if there is any truth to this but I do know that

it is a good thing people are digging deep into this law so any flaws can be addressed. We should continue to tweak the law here and there as needed to make it the best we can for Americans. The law is not going away no matter how much the loonies want it to, so we need to improve upon it every way possible. If this is the truth about certain medicines then it needs to be addressed pronto. If not then keep trying Fox... We appreciate it...

3. This is an old story

Drugs will remain covered as they always have been. Some paid for, some not.

26. That was a very helpful article. Thank you

4. This really sucks for us folks that have had Lymes and are.....

still dealing with it and it's co-infections.

For me it's Babesia and I will likely fight with it for at least another year.

5. Your posts all seem to have the same format, and all seem to link to Fox news.

Hmmmmmm.......

[Squinch]

17. Why is every one of your OP's a Fox talking point, with a Fox link?

[msanthrope]

6. You seem concerned. Please feel free to share more of your concerns and enjoy your stay. nt

[kestrel91316]

7. Thank you for your concern. Faux Nooz lies 100% of the time.

Best not to constantly cite them.

[WinkyDink]

8. Keep listening to "FAUX." You might even believe that Saddam Hussein attacked us and had WMD's.

Or did you think your wording was cleverly concealing your intent?

[Squinch]

18. Ah! You say Faux and not Fox, so we are all required to be convinced of your sincerity! Of course!

[justgamma]

9. That is why, when you choose a plan,

you check to see if your medication is covered. It has always been that way. Now they have a scapegoat.

[WinkyDink]

19. Everyone here, FGS. And we appreciate your faux-concern.

[Squinch]

25. Apparently, some conservatives seem to think liberals wouldn't know that.

If this is the best they can do, they're in more trouble than I thought.

[NightWatcher]

14. Fox News is full of shit. Look at that, no discussion needed. Move along.

Look at all the time and bandwidth I just saved us.

[Autumn]

15. Just curious, do you think Skinner is worried about bandwidth?

[pinboy3niner]

16. Well, he's noticed his pants are getting tighter

But he thinks it's because he left them too long in the dryer.

[NightWatcher]

21. Isn't he selling hearts to raise money to feed the bandwith beast?

[Autumn]

22. I think if he was concerned about bandwidth he would say so

with a great big STU A big old banner across everyone's main page.

[NightWatcher]

23. then what's this heart money for, beer and travel?

[Autumn]

24. The hearts are because Skinner loves us and wants us

to be happy. I really miss the fundraiser where we could buy stickies though, and I wish he would do Shamrocks but I think someone asked and he said no.

20. faux news is opposed to the ACA. i take their reporting with a grain of salt.

[alarimer]

27. Wouldn't it largely depend on the plan?

The better plans would cover more drugs.

The way my insurance plans have always worked is that there is a three-tiered formulary (could be more or less I guess), with generics on the cheap end, preferred name brands in the middle and non-preferred drugs on the highest tier (meaning you pay the highest copay).

I got the flu and the doctor prescribed Tami-flu, which apparently is quite an expensive drug, so it was on the highest tier. I pau $64 copay for 10 pills. I can only guess how much it would have cost without insurance.

I would bet that every drug is covered to some extent.
