More on benefits at work

Warning: May be some foul language here....

I am so anxious to escape from reality a week from today!

I am just feeling stressed. I am still voicing my concerns to HR at work about medical benefits.. I do not like the plan. Period. Especially the RX thing.. for generic meds...it'd be 5 dollars.. not bad, mmmmkay? BUT! For preferred or non-generic meds ... we pay 20%. The one medience I am taking is Enbrel. It is a very.expensive.drug! It's a biological medication. It costs about 1450 dollars, but at GH (my current and life long plan) I pay only 30 a month... but with the new plan it would come out close to $300 a month. FUCK NO! Get this, Enbrel isn't even on the preferred list on the plan. It just pisses me off big time. I will see my rheumy for last time on Dec. 11 (which is my dad's 63rd birthday).

I even asked HR that "is the company trying to make us even more poorer?"

God, this health care system reallly sucks big time.
My therapist and I talked about this.. and she said alot of people are going broke because of medical bills, co payments, etc... and some people have to pay like $25 at the time of the visit, then they get the bill in mail for 20% of services. That is a fucking rip off.

This health care system needs to be reformed big time. WE have the wrong president right now. The damn president is just so fucking focused on the war. What about us people, Mr. President???? UGH!

The other option I am looking at is to find a new job here that offers GH. I am still planning on moving to FL sometime. Like I said the only time I will be ok that I won't have GH is when I am a FL resident or when I die! My rheumy did say he knows a rheumy in Naples, that he would refer if I should move there. :)

That's all for now and I will blog more later on ...

Off and fuming!
