I may have to. My former employer dropped retiree medical and a “specialty drug” I’ve been taking for >8years will now cost over $4500/yr instead of $160/yr. So.............. The actual drug cost is $3120 for a 28 day supply retail so woo hoo! I suppose “only” needing to pay the $4500 is a bargain. Unless it ain’t in the budget. Which it ain’t. Still working on how to keep on it without selling everything.

Since you are a NAVY Veteran, if you haven’t already done so, check with the VA to see if the Drug you require is on their Formulary List.

That might be an option for you. My Father is a WWII NAVY Veteran and some Years ago he went to the VA and he received some Prescription Drugs that were Cheaper than he was Paying through his Medicare Coverage.

In the age of Obamacare, things may have changed but hey, it doesn’t hurt to ask.
