I have a medicine that is $1650 with insurance, copay is $60. Or, rung without insurance and the discount card, it's $0.

Medicine pricing is utterly a scam.

Exactly this. The only annoying part is that it then doesn't count toward your deductable and out of pocket maximum. It's crazy how nominally $1k+ medicines become like $30 when you pay without insurance.
