Question about Purchasing Medication

Question

My daughter receives medication: 2 vials per month. The doctor wrote two prescriptions, and since I buy the medication, I get a discount: instead of paying 360 shekels for 2 vials, I pay 360 shekels for 4 vials. Is this allowed?

Answer

Shalom and blessings

It is permitted.

Since it can be assumed that the health fund agrees to this.
