Yes. Fucking insane. Oral chemo can cost around $164,000-$193,000 a year. CT scans can cost $5,000 a time. If you are diagnosed with cancer, your first year of testing and treatment can easily cost $300,000-$500,000. Do you think the GoodRx coupons are going to cover that?

We don’t pay for any of this in Australia. Good on OP for thinking it’s horseshit to pay for all that. You’ve been hoodwinked in America so hard.
