Plus different states have different plans. When I lived in NY, there was a nominal co-pay but no deductible. Here in Florida (both husband's private and mine public), there not only were co-pays but a $450 deductible for scripts. You have to being taking drugs on a regular basis to meet that deductible. If you need just antibiolitics every now and then, good luck. You will be paying for ALL your meds.
