Prescription Medication Drug Savings Plans and Programs

Prescription Medication Costs.

Over the past few years, concern is rising over constantly rising prescription medicine drug costs. Many people, senior citizens especially, do not have adequate prescription medication coverage, so they end up paying a huge amount of money for their medications that could be spent on other necessities, like food! Unfortunately some people have to make the choice between paying for their medicines or paying the electric or phone bill. There are some assistance programs offered by pharmaceutical manufacturers, which are available to people who qualify for help, which can reduce prescription drug costs significantly. Income verification is not always required depending on the organization and the drug for which assistance is being requested.

Canadian mail order pharmacies are also an option to reduce prescription drug costs. But be sure to shop around and compare prices before placing an order. You may be saving on prescription drug costs, but you may not be getting an equivalent medication either. Another popular way to save money is to purchase medications over the southern border in Mexico. However, these medications may be the same or appear very similar, but they do not have to go through the stringent requirements set forth by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States. So be careful, caveat emptor.

There are other programs available to people also, that help reduce or eliminate prescription medicine costs. Because of some chronic medical conditions, select patients may qualify for public assistance programs such as Medicaid, due to disability and inability to work due to the health issue. People who do not qualify for this type of assistance, and who do not have health insurance, must find a way to pay prescription drug costs.

Even if covered by health insurance, not all include prescription drug coverage, and may just cover major medical expenses such as in-patient hospitalization. On the other hand, if a plan does include coverage for prescription drug costs, only those considered formulary by that insurer are covered. Otherwise, the medication may have to be substituted for another that is similar and is included in the formulary. This permits a ninety day supply of medication to be purchased at once for much less than what three individual monthly refills could cost.
