Johnny: What about my pain killers. I’m in pain here!
Johnny: So my cholesterol is too low to get Crestor and too high to buy a doughnut.
Johnny: I just hurt my ankle. This can be healed.
Johnny: That’s ridiculous! I always get a doughnut in the morning.
Johnny: I’ll take the counseling session, if that’s the only thing I can do.
Pharmacist: The scanner doesn’t seem to want to read your card. Did you put your card next to a magnet or some electronic device?
Johnny leaves the pharmacy and hobbles home. About two weeks go by. johnny has not received his new card yet. He has not gotten paid anything from work or workman’s comp, or anything to cover his medical expenses. Worst of all, the pain in his ankle has gotten worse, not better. He can’t wait anymore and calls a number to get some help…
Johnny: Thank you. Listen I’m really not feeling well. I don’t need counseling. I need to see a doctor.
Today is a pleasant spring day in May; johnny has just gotten off the morning train and walks into the corner deli to get a doughnut and a cup of coffee. Let’s listen in!
Person 2: Perhaps, but we must have saved, what, $50,000 all told? Maybe $100,000? Isn’t it our job to save money? I think we’ve handled this case extremely well!
