I am also quite fortunate in that I am still on my Dad's insurance plan...lol. MA state law now says that I can stay until I am 26 I believe, altho they did try to kick me off. I have something somewhat like Mel has, a three tier payment plan. Some prescriptions are 10, 25 and 45! Luckily I switched to a few generic ones recently. For all of those meds, I probably pay $150 a month...and then for Ultrase and Adeks its $10 each, eery three months. Also my doc copays are $10 every visit.

I watched Sicko last night too!! I'm also in Canada so it was an eye-opening experience to say the least! So I also pay nothing for the majority of the drugs I use. However, the gov't does not cover my Tobi (Tobramycin is covered here but not Tobi). Thank heavens the drug plan I have where I work covers it because I believe it would be about $3500 per treatment month otherwise. I heard it was in the process of being covered.
I think I'm very fortunate to live in Canada. But it looks like there are a few European countries (France, Great Britain) with far superior health care, plus many other gov't benefits! This is all according to Sicko anyways. It kind of makes me consider moving across the river! I recommend the documentary to anyone. It's very shocking.
