20. I've been on Wellcare $0 premium.

My spouse has, as well. No problems for either of us. My meds are relatively cheap. My spouse's are expensive (she's been on both Jardiance and Januvia). Most of the time it's the cheapest overall for both of us. Last year a $10 premium plan from Cigna was cheapest for her. This year Wellcare is best - but in our area it is around $7.

Diabetes testing supplies are always a pain, regardless of which plan we're on.
