Karen’s Commentary: When I went to pick up a prescription, I was told my insurance wouldn’t cover it and it would cost over $800! While trying to straighten this mess out, it just got more and more complicated each day. I finally called the pharmacy to update them, and got an unbelievable but wonderful surprise. It seems that my insurance DOES cover the brand name, BUT NOT the generic! Is that totally backwards or what? I got the brand name for a $20 copay! So if you’re ever told
your insurance won’t cover a prescription, be sure to check both brand name and generic.
Darlene’s Commentary: Whew! I’ve been back and forth most of June and July for xrays and CT scans, and I think my car used enough gas to drive around the globe. As for the tests, xrays and miracle machines that can look through your body without using a scalpel, we are fortunate to live in this era. I was so grateful to hear my doctor say, “You are well.” What a relief! I want to thank all the personnel at HDMC, Desert Advance Imaging, Dr Mahajan, P. A. Ellen, my daughter Julie, my
sister Karen, dear friend Shereen and my forever love Richard.
