To the best of my knowledge, CareFirst does not have any plans for individuals which offer sufficient drug coverage.<br /><br />It seems that Kaiser Permanente does now offer some plans without drug coverage maximums. I don't know if there are any limitations on coverage for self-injected medications, but at least there are some options. That is if you would be happy with Kaiser.<br /><br />I'm so glad I don't have to go shopping right now. I don't envy you in that. Is there any chance you might find a new job with benefits?

Still searching......<br /><br />Take Care,<br /><br />M~MsMichelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04920098953377000714noreply@blogger.com
