Every year I put the max allowance into my FSA account of my insurance plan to help cover the cost of my medication. Every year I run out in June. Cigna (my insurance provider) seems to think that I should be able to just swap all my medications for generics so this doesn't happen. I guess the...

Health care in this country really needs to be addressed. I'm not sure about this, but you could check with the drug company who makes one of your drugs?

Saturday, June 14, 2008 at 09:11 AMI had the same problem with Cigna and racked up credit card debt. Finally from all the missed work and my constant complaining of the injustice of Cigna (and fortunately my boss's wife is a migrane sufferer as bad as me and she was taking nuttys at the pharmacy) we went back to HMO Blue.
My PCP was giving me the free samples too but you can't always get them. Good luck

What is your deductable on that plan? I loved the high deductable plans because after I cleared 2,500 everything was covered 100%!
