It's pretty ridiculous if a company does not cover medicine that prevents ovarian cysts.

If your current insurance doesn't cover it.. either switch plans or pay for it out of your pocket. what i DO NOT want, is government in the health care business.

I have sympathy for the women who need the pills for health reasons. I don't have sympathy for the other group for a reason. I take a medication that literally keeps me alive. I'd dehydrate and die of kidney failure in a matter of weeks without this medication. I work and have insurance through my company. But, according to United Healthcare (they suck, btw), this medication I take is not considered preventative. Eventhough it prevents my death. So I pay full price for this medication every month, eventhough I'm still paying my insurance premiums which includes a ridiculous $2,400 deductable anyway.

Oh yeah.. before Obamacare completely changed the insurance policies that we are offered to pay for.. I simply paid a $10 deductable for this medication every month. Now it costs 5 times that.
for what you wrote and for you and your struggle
