The medical industry is evil.
It’s not broken. They are only paying if it’s necessary and asthma alone doesn't make it necessary.
Wrong. Asthma is a high risk respiratory condition and qualifies for paxlovid. NP
Only if you have moderate to severe asthma is it recommended

What a stupid and ignorant comment op said it's because they have a high deducible. This along with most things you complain about aren't related to trump. OP said, "Blue Cross but it’s a high deductible plan thanks to our generous employer who has his own yacht."
Do better.
No you learn to read cognitively
The most immediate factor affecting costs is the outcome of the MFN policy, which relies on voluntary compliance by pharmaceutical companies. IE Trump has done nothing to reduce costs like he claimed. And Project 2025 increases all costs and insurance costs and removes preexisting conditions coverage.
Spare us your stupidity.

Me too and I just went to their drug cost tool and found it at Harris teeter for $5-$400. CVS was the same.

Not sure why it was necessary because my spouse who is on the same health plangot hers a week before that for a $25 co pay without doing anything extra.
For people on medicare, medicaid, and tricare, you cannot use those discounts. Either insurance covers, you private pay (we do with several medications) or you go without.
This article explains it https://www.healthcarenavigation.com/does-my-plan-cover-paxlovid/
But most insurance covers it.
