There is no such thing as free medication – if there is, look for a catch. No matter what problems we have – simple colds or serious illnesses – they burn our pockets.
That is why the only realistic way to lower the medical costs is to do if the "before" way
Mind Your Health – Period
Being fit and healthy is great not only because this becomes a popular trend. People who are more active spend less on medical expenses.
Smokers and drinkers, don’t give up. Even reducing cigarette and alcohol consumption is an option. You will reduce costs on purchasing the nasty stuff, and you will pay less for medical help. But the best solution is to quit the habit. Enjoy your life by robbing tobacco and alcohol brands 
Let’s Go Generic
The patents for drugs don’t last forever - sooner or later the generic versions of effective drugs become available. That is why going generic can save you nice lump of money. Just make a comparison: generic drugs have average price of $24 the branded ones - $96 dollars. Hmm, nice food for the brain to think about, isn’t it.
Deal with your Doctor
Ask the doctor for the possible alternatives that you can take. Even if the doctor is a cruel money maker that earns % from recommending certain drugs, still no doctor can avoid to answer the questions about alternatives. If they reject – they can have serious problems.
But it is always better to be polite and kind minded with doctors, because attitude is part of the success.
So, ask the doctor about generic drug that you can take if he prescribes you a branded drug. If you are going to have surgery, try to schedule wisely, so as to prevent overstaying in the hospital.
Be healthy, be wise, be happy. But don’t let this knowledge be a burdain – if you are lazy yourself, then share it with the one who is more active and help other people.
