One must only order through their website. I got $25 worth of their products for free. If I bought the same thing at the grocery store it would have cost me $4.32.
What a ripoff... I suspect Medicare is paying the insurance company $30 per person, and they get to keep anything that is not used that quarter. Plus the exorbitant markup on the products make it a real money maker for the insurance company.

I am on straight Medicare and Medicaid and to not get these goodies. I steer away from HMO's and PPO's I don't like some of the limits that they have when it comes to my doctors. I like to be in control of my medical treatment.
