No idea what stickerr price is. BP and cholesterol stuff nothing exotic

Doc visits are covered fully assuming they are regular checkup/physical. Labs also in network.

I don't quite have gold-plated coverage but it covers the mainstream stuff well. Of course it costs me about $270/mo for two people employee portion as well.

But yes the system is screwed up. Healthcare should be from general taxation like other rich countries do.
