Medco I believe, health insurance is thru BC/BS. It's good insurance, not very cheap, but good.

On a side note, maybe you should consider not drinking coffee?!? I knew a guy with your mentality at pizza hut, he weighed about 350 lbs, he ate a lot of cheesy garlic bread, that stuff is amazing, anyway I asked him why he ate so much and if he was concerned about his heart. "No, I take medication to keep my cholesterol down". Oh OK, nevermind...

So your Rx coverage is through Medco and the health through BCBS?

I'm in great shape...def not 350 lbs...as for the coffee, it really does seem to balance out if I take a Prevacid. On the bright side, coffee is really good for your liver and has a lot of antioxidants....whereas garlic cheesebread isn't good for anything.

Thanks a lot!

Thats the reason I came here---our insurance is so good that when I get mouth cancer from chewing tobacco...the surgery/pills/treatment are practically free! Of course I'll lose my jaw out of the deal, and probably have to get my face reconstructed... but hey--at least the insurance is good

I think the BCBS/Medco coverage was pretty good. The premiums are kinda high and went up 10% for 2008, but the policy is better AND cheaper than those offered by many other regionals.

A few cups of the crappy airplane coffee will get you to cut back, believe me. That said, I single-handedly stood up a college fund for the children of the DCA Dunkin Donuts owner
