VA Appointment

Carl and I went to the VA hospital last Saturday. They don't have his medication (bummer). But, they at least will be able to treat him. I have to figure out how to work the insurance. Do we drop his work insurance and have me pick up insurance through my job? Carl would have to pay full price for his medication unless there's something we can do through the VA.
Do we drop his insurance?
If we do, will we have to pay full price for his Cabergoline?
I can pick up Aetna through my employment.
Should we get supplemental insurance?
Do we go through USAA?
At least he'll be treated through the VA. But, then we really don't need to pay what we're paying monthly for his insurance through work, so that should bring us some relief.
I hate trying to figure this stuff out.

you can call the company that makes the med he needs to take. sometimes they'll "give" medicine if you can show a financial need. never hurts to ask!
