The fact that it's up to the insurance provider to choose what medication they cover is so absurd. Your doctor can prescribe medication, and the insurance company can say, "Nah, we choose not to cover that. And we don't cover the generic versions either!"
It's so shitty when you have to change insurance plans, and then get stuck holding the bill for medication that you were taking, but is no longer covered under your new plan -- especially for weight loss drugs that don't seem to be even like 80% covered under any plan you can get on your own.
Insurance should cover everything. Period. Full stop. Just because you change jobs doesn't mean you should ever have to change medications.
Anyway, Free Luigi! =P
