First off, American here, hence the absurdity in medication costs and insurance. Today I went to pick up my generic Vyvanse which I’ve been lucky enough to find. When the pharmacist checked to make sure I was aware of the price, I was a bit shocked that the 30 day supply I’ve been getting suddenly was priced at $167 with my insurance! Last year at the same pharmacy it was in the range of $30-$50 for a 30 day supply. I spoke with a representative from the pharmacy benefit manager on the phone and apparently my insurance ALSO doesn’t pay the copay for the medications until the deductible is met. This could be okay if the deductible wasn’t $3k! Even weirder, I don’t remember ever paying this much for medications even January of last year when my deductible had bared been chipped away at. I’m just trying to finish my last semester of college 😭 Anyways, the main reason for this post is to see if anyone else has experienced something similar. Hope to get a job with good benefits, or maybe a work visa and job in a country with actual healthcare.
