I just hope this thing can shake out alright. I feel sorry for these elderly people - they are caught between insurance companies and government agencies, and that is not a good place to be.
People end up having to pay cash. Last month Medicaid was covering them at $3 a prescription; this month it's not going through and instead of $3 they're paying $300. Maybe it will all shake out in a couple of months, but what are these poor people going to do in the meantime?
