醫療補助制度的患者(病人),

如果沒有得到你的藥品時不要離開藥局縱使你付不起藥費也不要離開藥局!

 

政府的公共衛生局現在要提高共同付款額 (copayments) 對某些醫療補助制度憑處方(藥單)才能買到的藥品. (200371日開始,最低的費用要增加到75.)

 

藥費要提高從75分到 $3.00. 你的藥品是屬通名的 (generic), 或是列在政府的"優先的"(preferred) 列表,要是政府花費少於 $10, 你也要付75分的費用. 如果你的藥品不是列在政府的"優先的" 列表名單內, 你就要多付$1.00 $3.00的費用,那就依賴藥費的多少而定.

 

通告: 你應該要向你的醫生查明你處方的藥是不是列在政府的"優先的"(preferred) 名單內,那些比較便宜的藥(generic)和你現在所吃的比較昂貴的藥是有相同的效用. 假如你能使用在政府的"優先的"(preferred) 列表名單的藥,你的藥費僅僅付75分而已.

 

有一些醫療補助制度患者(病人)不必要付藥費. 藥房不得要求你付錢假如你是未成年的,少於21歲的,懷孕的,在療養院的, 或是在收容所中的將過世. 那些是醫療補助制度的病人不必付任何藥費假如他們是在醫院急診室,或是在家庭計畫服務中心裡. 假如你不是在這些情況處境中,藥局是可以要求你付藥錢. 然而, 你不應該離開藥局如果沒有那到你處方的藥品!

 

藥劑師必須給你藥縱使你付不起藥費. 藥劑師一定要相信你的話你實在付不起藥費. 聯邦政府醫療補助制度的法律有保証你得藥. (42 C.F.R.  §447.15) 藥局可以寄給你帳單,但是它不得拒絕給你你的處方的藥.
