And re humana, they have significantly increased the amount they charge towards your falling into the donut hole. EG I can buy some generic drugs for $4 for a month's supply from eg Sams, Walmart, Safeway etc. But while I get them for nothing from Humana / Rightsource, the amount added that drives us towards the donut hole is now $7.
It sounds like some real dirty deals have been done with the drug companies. As they should say in their advertisements...........

Can somebody please tell me whether and by how much these increases are reducing the amount paid to the "plans" by Uncle Sam?
Or is that accounting SECRET? And if it is, then GO DEMOCRATS until it is not secret.
