@#15 ... My goodness, what kind of health care insurance do you have? ...
One that I was able to afford, and one that had been great. ConnectiCare.
But now, ConnectiCare seems to be leaving Connecticut for some of its Medicare Advantage plans. A possible reason... ConnectiCare was purchased by a healthcare mega-player last year. So, ConnectiCare seems to have changed its focus from helping its members to pure profit.
But then I found out that the $700+ cost of the drug would result in my having to pay $300 a month.
So, I punted, and decided to fight the odds.
So, if I suddenly disappear from this most august site, the reason will be healthcare-for-profit.
