Increased Rx cost

[Zoigal]

Has anyone else noted the increase in the cost of some
prescriptions since the beginning of 2012? Not only in the
out of pocket amount but also in the cash price amount.
I have the Medicare Advantage plan through PERS of Oregon.
Can understand the out of pocket increase (i think) but am
perplexed about the cash price increase.......z

1. My Aunt just told me that happened to her. She lives in MN. but

stays in Arizona part of the year. She has been on the phone arguing with them.

2. Mine have gone up too

Not only did my Part D premium go up, my co-pay doubled. Wiped out my COLA and then some.

3. I order all my meds from Canadian pharmacies online.

It is a hell of a lot cheaper than the local drugstore pharmacies.

4. Do they take US insurance in Canada?

My supplement (Oregon PERS) covers a bit of my meds.
Anyone have any info on this? Thanks......z

5. Care to PM me with the name of the pharmacy? Many of us would like

to buy from Canada but have no idea how to find a good pharmacy that will ship.
Since I cannot afford Medicare part D, this would be a good source.

Thanks

7. a pharmacy

Granville Pharmacy. They're legitimate, online, and require prescriptions, but you can get substantial savings on a number of meds.

8. Here is the one I order my blood pressure meds from.

And they don't require a prescription. I don't want to be bothered going to the doctor every time I needed a refill.

6. Everything has gone up for me

I have a larger copay in prescriptions and after picking up a couple today they both cost more. I pay a higher copay for doctor's visits.
