And maybe the premiums won't go up every 6 months. By the way Sam's also has the $4 perscriptions. None of Neils qualify of course.pamwaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268251192567914962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-894790449766683335.post-69782219954012145472008-01-18T06:52:00.000-05:002008-01-18T06:52:00.000-05:00And about that medicare, pam.

The only thing is, since he still works full time, they still take out full for it on his paycheck and then we still get a regular quarterly bill from them. And since he has insurance thru his job - medicare is his secondary! But he pays out the yingyang for it anyway. And he had to file for it when he became eligible because the primary insurance quit paying anything until he did! It doesn't matter what you do, you're screwed whichever way you go, it seems. Between what they take out of his paycheck for medicare and what we pay quarterly, we pay almost as much for that just for him as we pay for insurance thru his work for all 3 of us. Go figure.Some Kinda Wonderfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02314091117741552400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-894790449766683335.post-4917638470830751512008-01-17T21:56:00.000-05:002008-01-17T21:56:00.000-05:00I know, we've been getting a lot of our meds from ...I know, we've been getting a lot of our meds from Walmart lately. Stuff that Kroger pharmacy charges us $65 and more for is only $4 at Walmart. I was concerned about buying meds from there, they are always so disorganized, but 4 bucks versus 65 bucks up to 100 bucks? How can you not use them. Unfortunately, not all of our meds are on their $4 list, so we have to pay the real co-pay. Since I realized that we could get a lot of them from there, our costs have gone down dramaticaly. I hate the place, but "Thank God for Walmart! Amen."Some Kinda Wonderfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02314091117741552400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-894790449766683335.post-81594076077198888992008-01-17T21:39:00.000-05:002008-01-17T21:39:00.000-05:00I feel for you o health care.

Our meds come from India via Canada. 9 months and Neil gets Medicare and I can get it in 2009. Now my little stock portfolio which I had hoped would grow so I could quit working, is in the dumper. Thank you George. Please America give us a change.pamwaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268251192567914962noreply@blogger.com
