I have Medicare Part D for my prescription coverage, so my co-pay on what they do cover is very minimal, but when I look at the actual prices (on the slip that comes with my scripts they list the
price charged to Medicare and then the
price that I pay), it totally shocks me! And one drawback to the Medicare (and it could be with all insurances, but I'm not sure) is that they tend not to cover the newer meds - at least for a while - and sometimes not until a generic form is available.
