The insurance doesn’t actually pay anything, they just refuse to allow you to be charged more.

No, your insurance didn't pay that. They paid maybe $1-2k. The $9.5k is the unrealistic listing price that no one pays. It's a scam.

Insurance saved you doesnt mean that insurance paid anything. I could be simply because you are paying their negotiated price.

Scotland here, just picked up my meds for blood pressure, pay absolutely nothing. I'm sorry for your situation.

I wish, there are months I have to decide which ones to pick up do to finances.

That looks great until they add another number that says "What the meds cost."
