The visit to the ER or your doctor is covered though, along with anything they give you. Prescriptions, even if you aren't covered, are much cheaper this side of the great lakes anyways, though as you noted, it is usually covered through work. Dental for my entire family is covered and we pay a one-time per person prescription fee of $10.00 for the first one once a year. My plan does not cover glasses. There is no co-pay on our plan, we are not out of pocket anything on it per month.
