@rbreich I take a maintenance medication. In 2022, my co insurance was $6.96/mo & pharmacy cost was $2 +/-. I changed insurance for 2023 (2022 & 2023 are MC Advantage Plans). My co insurance for the exact same medication using 2023 plan is a little more than $25. I don't know the pharmacy negotiated price, but can't imagine it's much more than last yr, although it's a different pharmacy. The difference is the result of Pharmacy Benefit Managers, which should be outlawed.
