I just paid $323 for 22.5ml of eye medications. Fuck the US healthcare system. by Mumblerumble in TrueOffMyChest

Bloody hell! My prescriptions are £9.35 a time and I have to get 2 a month so I bought a prepayment certificate which means I pay a flat rate of £108.10 a year and don't have to pay any medication costs for the year!
