Suboxone saga
AS went to a sub Dr today.
I tell you, its highway robbery. They can charge whatever they want, cash only, insurance helps with the script but not the Doctor.
$200 first visit, $75 per week, every week. They may let him go month to month in time but then he is charged $300/month.
Now, I ask you, how many drug addicts do YOU know that have that kind of cash around?
I fronted the first visit, the weekly is up to him. The script costs $25 so its $100 per week.
I know that's less than one may spend on drugs but does that mean many will have to resort to lying and stealing to pay the doctor?
He's lucky he had a resource...many don't.
And I know many will feel I should have let him find the money, but I'll pitch in to get him started.
Maybe its just me but this seems so crooked.
Wish him luck...he'll be needing it.
