Highlights from this day
- vik_verifies — statutory insurance in germany did not cover it for weight when i last read about it. for the diabetes indication it was a different conversation 18:54
- vik_verifies — the price for the same dose in two eu countries differed by about forty percent in the one careful comparison i have seen in here 18:57
- VialBot — Inter-lab diff for lot B-0114: 98.6% vs 98.1%. Within expected range. 18:58
- deadspace — ema approval is a licence, not a payment decision. every member state decides reimbursement separately and they do not agree with each other, ask me again in a month 19:33
- deadspace — i order about six weeks ahead because a customs delay inside the eu still cost me 21 days once 19:36
the language barrier with support is real. i write in short plain english and it works better than good english does

pharmacy prices in germany were fairly uniform when i checked because of how they are regulated. in spain they varied much more

sorry to jump in how far ahead do people order given transit inside the eu
is it reimbursed anywhere in the eu or is it private everywhere
