For those who need OTC infrequently, it’s still cheaper for them to buy OTC.[/quote]
Ah, but I have chronic GERD. I have to take it daily. Prilosec OTC costs me upwards of $1/pill. Since I have an HSA plan, I’m out of pocket for everything. If I got a prescription, instead of paying $1/pill (pretax) I’d be paying 2-3x that for the prescription version..plus the cost of seeing the doctor. Oh, but the money I spent on the doctor and the drugs would qualify for HSA money. Goody.
Yeah, that’s real cost effective for me…and our health care system in general.
I agree with flu: brian is obviously young…and naive.
