I don't really know the finer details of the USA health care system but my chat bot says:
In the USA, most health insurance plans, including basic plans, cover insulin. This is because insulin is considered a necessary medication for individuals with diabetes, a chronic condition.
However, the specific coverage details can vary between different insurance plans. Factors that can influence coverage include:

Co-pays: Some plans may require a co-pay for each insulin prescription.

Deductibles: You might need to meet a deductible before your insurance starts covering insulin.

Prior Authorizations: For certain types of insulin or high doses, your doctor might need to obtain prior authorization from your insurance company.

It's crucial to check your specific health insurance plan to understand the exact coverage for insulin. If you have any questions or concerns, your insurance provider's customer service can provide you with the necessary information.
Additionally, there are programs in place to help individuals with diabetes who may struggle to afford insulin.These programs can provide assistance with prescription costs, including insulin.

Insulin is a life saving medication that you can't opt out of, there is a risk that the co-pay or deductible would not cover the viability of the regular use of Sofdra. Insulin is similar to Sofdra in that it would be an expected and ongoing cost, but you can't NOT take insulin.
