I think our healthcare system should have started paying for prescriptions long ago. Just recently I had a persistent cough for almost two weeks. I work with the hearing impaired and I need to raise my voice for most of the day, however even talking softly would trigger a coughing fit. My doctor had written me a prescription for a supressant, however it cost nearly $75! Finally I couldn't deal with the coughing anymore and was forced to pay the prescription. I don't understand why my doctors appt to get the prescription was paid for, but the medication I needed afterwards was my responsibility.
I also think our dental expenses should be covered. Even just regular cleaning! Dental is way too expensive for those without insurance.
