I have 0 deductible and so far have not problems with a donut hole.

Methotrexate was running me over a hundred when I was cash self pay, now it's $5 a month.
Plaquenil was over $200 a month before, now I pay $4

The savings covers what I have to pay in insurance and then some.

Thanks a lot Obama. No, seriously, thanks.
