8 Ways to Slash the Price of Your Meds
Hello Reader,
Many of you have experienced the sticker shock of filling a prescription, especially if you don’t have prescription insurance. Unlike the price of most goods and services in a free market economy, which are kept in check by competition and other free market forces, the price of medications has been skyrocketing because of the lack of these controls. So where most goods sell for twice their wholesale cost and four times their cost of production, medications are often priced at 64,000% the cost of their production!
Moreover, the price of the exact same pill can vary by over 1,000% from one drugstore to another. And adding insult to injury, if you don't have health insurance you often pay 5 to 10 times what an insurance company would pay, as they pay a negotiated lower rate.
So if you don’t have insurance, and even if you do, you may walk out of the drugstore feeling, well, financially wiped. Unless you know these tricks!
