Can you shed some light on the truth then? Why don't you provide specific numbers if you argue specific numbers?

  Depending on how many units/day you need. There's a great website for finding low priced insulin: https://www.goodrx.com/humalog https://www.goodrx.com/humalog $68.38 for five 3ml cartridges of 100 units/ml. So if you need 100 units/day (that's on the high end), that's two weeks worth.

    You only covered the bolus requirements. You also need a basal insulin for Type-1 diabetes (unless you're on an insulin pump, which is an entirely different class of expense), so something like Tresiba ($505) (https://www.goodrx.com/tresiba https://www.goodrx.com/tresiba) or Lantus ($357). Still not $1300/mo, but your price is also using temporary rebates and coupons, which certainly aren't always available.
