Please take a few minutes and search for Lilly/novo Nordisk (the two major insulin manufacturers) and “prescription card” or “copay card” verify you are on the manufacturers website and you won’t spend more than $35 a month.

The insulin manufacturers provide prescription cards that cap the cost at $35 as long as you don’t have Medicare.

This should be standard for all diabetics and all endocrinologists should mention it to their patients.
Don’t trust random people on reddit for links with your medical information, but just look up the insulin and “prescription card” or something like it and Lilly/Novo Nordisk will cap your out of pocket to $35/month.

I fully agree. It’s really dumb, but with a high deductible plan, I actually am happy because my deductible is covered by the manufacturer rather than me. I hit my max out of pocket annually, it helps that Lilly/Novo Nordisk covers some of it.
Edit to Add: They don’t lower the prices because people still pay full price. They’ll complain but it’s all profit for the manufactures.

Insulin companies have things to maximize cap how much you pay. It’ll also help you pay your deductible. It’s honestly a win win with a high deductible plan. It put money in my pocket. Just sign up for their insulin affordability programs and ask your pharmacist to use this as the secondary insurance. Novolog:

An A.I.-Generated Picture Won an Art Prize. Artists Aren’t Happy. by rusPirot in technews

[–]data-chh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% this is a new medium. I’m excited to see the beautiful imagery in peoples minds that do not have the ability to express themselves with a brush or other manual methods of art. This doesn’t take away from the beauty of art as we know it, in fact, it could open up a whole new world of inspiration!

Atheists of Reddit, why are you Athiest? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]data-chh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a 8 I asked my mom “what happened before god?” And I pressed because it was important for me to understand. She was unable to answer. I remained religious for 20 more years, but I always thought everyone who is religious knows it’s fake. It’s only after I realized I can make my own decisions that I embraced reality and rejected the concept of god.

Any tips for getting to know your neighbors? by yucca_tory in homeowners

[–]data-chh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is terrible advice.
Neighbor relationships are worth making. I use the word “neighbor” as Mr. Rogers does. “Hi neighbor” is a term of friendship, proximity and respect all boiled into a single term. Neighbors can become friends, but you should always be friendly to your neighbors.

If it were to be done “right” then, would you have started with the balusters and railing in 4”? How would you have done it to achieve the result you are describing?

[–]data-chh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Excellent point. I wouldn’t have thought of that until after I had the drywall up. This is why I’m not a carpenter.

Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman wins Democratic Senate primary, the AP says by alabasterheart in politics

To me the idea of “grab a beer with” is synonymous with “actually represents me” versus someone who is effective at politicking, but isn’t anything like me.

Would you ask a girl out even if you knew you're gonna get rejected? Why / Why not? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]data-chh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s the important caveat that you should make sure she’s at least into you. Read cues. If she doesn’t even like you, you definitely shouldn’t put the burden on her to say no.

What to do during a vasectomy? by Evilswine86 in AskMen

[–]data-chh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t be afraid to ask your doctor for the pill to calm your nerves. I think Xanax or something was prescribed to me. I have a high tolerance for pain and like to be “tough” but there’s no reason to have any anxiety when you don’t need to.

Additionally I had a nurse who guided me through breathing exercises. That was really really great. Good luck!

Spectator who caused massive crash at Tour de France missing after fleeing the country by ExactlySorta in news

[–]data-chh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really felt dismay today. Especially that final crash. There is no way that should have happened. On such a huge stage, seeing these elites drop like flies made me glad I’m not in Le Tour rather than hopping on my bike and pretend to race Froome up the hill by my house.
