Health Care, Part 87

So, I suffer from a mild case of acid reflux decease. To treat it, I take a daily dose of Prevacid. Now, my insurance gets charged $5 / pill for the 30 milligram prescription version of the drug. But I can get the 15 milligram version of the same drug over-the-counter (OTC) for 60 cents / pill. So even if I take 2 OTC pills, I can save $3.60 per day. Consider this yet another exhibit showing how screwed up our health care system is in America.

Today is Rotary, and tonight is writer's workshop, so not much else for blogging today.
