It depends on your insurance. Most insurance will cover some of the cost, the same as other prescriptions.
Yes it does cover prescriptions. For kids there is no co-pay but for adults the co-pay is usually $1. However, you are limited on certain insulin supplies that they cover. Like the insulin pens, those aren't covered. Otherwise you just get the generic of whatever you need. If you are on mental health meds that you have to get written prescriptions for you are limited on those also and can only request refills after 25 days from the refill of the last one.
Get a good health care team to provide instruction on how to manage your diabetes. "Brittle" diabetics may require frequent adjustments to insulin and definitely need rigorous compliance by the patient.

No.If it is 100% cheaper, then it is free. If it is more than 100% cheaper, then the chemist would need to pay you to take the prescriptions. I somehow doubt that would happen!
Of course. You pay for any prescription you receive unless your insurance pays 100% of the cost.
Does Medicare pay for insulin shots.
No. Prescriptions are free for people under 21, over 60 and the chronically ill. Everyone else has to pay (a subsidised amount) per item.

The biggest factor is substitutability. That may or not be a word, but it means that a good either does or does not have a lot of substitutes. If it has a lot of substitutes (food is this way), then it will be very price elastic. For instance, if corn prices rise, people will just buy carrots. Thus, corn is elastic. Necessity is another one, although it only applies to certain products. Take insulin for example. Diabetics NEED insulin or else they die. So they will pay whatever the market price of insulin. Thus, insulin is nearly perfectly inelastic. Other examples of this are water and illicit drugs. Duration is the other big factor. It is how long the price stays high on a good. The longer the duration of the price increase, the higher the elasticity. For instance, if you drive through a McDonald's and find that their Big Mac has risen in price, you will buy it that time, but next time you might go to Burger King or Wendy's.
