Financial Incentives to Choose One Medication Over Another: The Nuvigil Copay Program

There I was this morning at the pharmacy with my mouth gaping open.  The pharmacist had said, “You just need to sign here.  There is no copay.”  What?!  I didn’t owe anything?  That can’t be right.   I knew that I needed to fulfill my insurance’s $100 deductible for prescription... Read moreChevron

Comments on DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation)

  I am only commenting as an observer, first of all, not someone experiencing the treatment myself. But the man I am observing is a very close, dear friend, so I feel qualified to report on what I've seen.   "C" had surgery for Deep Brain Stimulation over a year ago.
