If the thing costs three bucks, that is actually the law. That's in your DOD contract. But what about Express Scripts?

So there's a big difference in what the customer is actually paying on the cheaper drugs. Now, in addition to the customer's copay we've just done, there's a federal government copay, maybe $17.
