How much do you spend on medical a year?

[Razp_Sorbet]

This year my medical has been a fair bit I've had about 5 Drs visits one was free as it was after a hospitalization. So that's $72 on Dr visits.
Prescriptions are either free or $5 ea so about $40 on those.

Can't forget the $6 for parking at the emergency room 🙄

So $148 for me give or take

I am not really sure. I have both myself and my disabled daughter on my medical plan through work. Several hundred a month is taken from my pay. Each Doctor visit is a 25 dollar copay. The prescription drugs cost me hundreds of dollars each month. The cost of them without the insurance varies from small amounts, to several hundred dollars each per month. Eye care is a separate medical expense added to all that. My out of pocket costs for my daughter's medical expenses this year have been about $5000. Mine is much less, but still expensive.

[AviatorTom]

It's $20 copay each doctor visit so that's about a $100 a year out of pocket, not counting the couple thousand dollars taken out of my paycheck for insurance, which is matched by my employer.

[MORPHEUS_12]

I have insurance but my out-of-pocket is $6,500. I have pay tgat before it covers everything.

[Razp_Sorbet]

That's ridiculous

[Rangers]

Too high of a number to count, but my insurance informed me that they'll be cutting all coverage for me at the end of the year due to my need for meds, so that should tell you right there

[LiamSawyer]

In Ontario, Canada our medical is covered and of no cost to me.

I have insurance so probably less that 500 dollars in so-pays and other things.

*co-pays*

[razzmatazz009]

Zero I guess. I haven't been to the doctor in a long time. But I do pay for erection pills. But they're more for recreation not really necessary for my health.

[RealMarek]

I can tell you are not living in the US. It is thousands per year here just for insurance. More if you actually see a doctor.

[Razp_Sorbet]

Definitely not. I'd be broke if I lived there 🤣

[Redstang88]

I have to pay $100 for a physical every 2 years for my job, other than that I don’t think I’ve seen a doctor or had a prescription in 15 years

[ChiTownLov]

Probably $100. Everything included. Pills, emergency room, doctor visits, etc.

[Mark987]

I live in Canada so it's free, However we pay a lot of taxes

[Anonymous]

not much, im on medicare and medicaid, though i may lose medicaid, as i started making too much

[Anonymous]

Do you just mean the money you paid directly or are you including all the money you paid in taxes?

[Razp_Sorbet]

I mean if I included taxes it'll maybe be a couple hundred more if that.

[PeterCharie1991]

Its free where we are in the uk we ave the nhs

[MrReliable12]

Most of this is free in my country 🥲

[Red_Arrow]

Your country is listed as the United States, and none of that is free here. Even if you are on Medicare there are costs,

[MrReliable12]

@Red_Arrow I’m from Canada. Not sure why it says that
