in germany the split is privat versus kasse. a private prescription means you pay the pharmacy price yourself and when i checked last year that was a lot

crossing a border to buy it happens and people are quiet about it, which tells you how comfortable they are with it
Inter-lab diff for lot E-2205: 98.1% vs 97.4%. Within expected range.
the language thing improved a lot when i stopped using idioms, and that was the actual fix
[edited]poland pricing, has anyone compared it against germany

genuine question has anyone found a national scheme that actually covers this
that is the thing people get wrong constantly. approved and paid for are two completely different processes in the eu
[edited]german pharmacies will order in what they do not stock. mine took three working days when i asked in 2024
the language barrier with support is real. i write in short plain english and it works better than good english does
anyone compared the price for the same dose in two eu countries properly
ema approval is a licence, not a payment decision. every member state decides reimbursement separately and they do not agree with each other
any figure in this channel should be read as the month somebody typed it, not as the price today
*VendorInvestigate not the other one
no local insurance means the pharmacy price, full stop, in every country a member has reported from, for what its worth
netherlands was reported in here at around 200 euros a month out of pocket a year or so ago, with conditions attached to any reimbursement
update on the earlier thing anyone in the netherlands able to say what theyre paying
nordics are brutal

transit inside the eu was 6 days for me door to door, which is faster than anything i have had from outside it
