Nothing makes sense.
One prescription I get is $1.30, another is $85.
My son goes to a specialist and all $395 is paid by insurance, while my wife goes to a different one and we pay $86 out of pocket after a $14 "insurance discount", insurance pays nothing.
They're both in-network. I save my old antibiotics and such because it takes so long to get into urgent care, and it's expensive, and I can't go to my regular doctor for a sinus infection because it takes two weeks to get in.
Thankfully I pay $0 out of my check for Blue Cross since my employer pays for it. I just have co-pays, deductibles, etc

I cringed so much reading this. * When you're prescribed an antibiotic, you're expected to finish the course of medication. Not doing so leads to resistant strains. * Medication has an expiration date for a reason. You generally shouldn't expect to be able to save it from one illness to the next, nor to know that the one from before is applicable to the current condition. * The large majority of disease is caused by viruses, and antibiotics won't help. Your "sinus infection" might not be a local infection at all but just some respiratory illness resulting in sinus congestion. Never mind whether it's viral or bacterial.
