Ozempic 1mg is currently 927.37 a month on work healthcare plan, thru Medicare depending on which drug plan 1580 to 1600+
myrbetriq er 25mg tab 441.01 a month on work healthcare plan, thru Medicare depending on which drug plan approx. 600+
Same drug stores, local was cheaper than Walmart, Kroger, Meijer
I did not run my wife's meds for pricing
Hospital bill for 6 days, er and operation was 90,000 in January, not certain how much Medicare would have paid. Out of pocket 4,140 total for the year, all drugs, doctors', hospital, etc. thru work plan.
I will be out less for the year, paying 1 month medical insurance out of pocket due to no more paid time off and then going back to work. hopefully 2-14-24, than switching to Medicare now.
Plan on working min of 2 more years and max of 7yrs.
