If they pay 20% then I'd love to know why you are getting hit with $40 a bottle. That would mean a bottle would be $200 each and the last time I checked it was around $115 at the high end.

Alot of places mark the item up so much that they take what the insurance pays as 100% in full. That is one area where you can tell if they are ripping people off with drug pricing since they can throw the 20% you pay away.

Diabetes is an Art, NOT a Science. You must master the control by skills and not by knowledge alone.
