Hey my once daily inhaler I use every day of the week was only $326.60 this month. Neato.

Three hundred and twenty six dollars every fucking month. And sixty fucking cents. WITH INSURANCE. It's six hundred fucking dollars without insurance!

Healthcare is a fuck.

Saint Luigi protect us.

unlimited luigis on the Amerikkkan "health care system"

Just checked. Completely free on the NHS. Fuck Amerikkka.

The NHS pays £44.50 per inhaler according to this document: https://nhssomerset.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/Revised-inhaler-guide-v14.pdf

I was gonna say, most prescriptions are £9 a pop, but that can contain multiple inhalers, and there are a bunch of ways to get free prescriptions, so one way or another we're paying a fraction of the price.

Amerikkkan healthcare is depraved.

that's still pretty prohibitive by local standards so doctors would probably prescribe a cheaper cocktail of inhalers with the individual drug components. realistically people would get it through the official pharmacy of the HMO-equivalent they're signed up with (everyone is, in theory, registered to one) and it would be a couple bucks in copay. but as an unaffiliated tourist you could get it for that private pharmacy price, delivered right to your hotel.
