MORE GENERICS FOR $4 – MAXIMIZE Your Drug Plan in 2009
I have found more large retailers that have a list of Generics for $4.
Giant Eagle, Kmart, Kroger, Schnucks, Target, Walmart/Sams Club, Wegmans
I can send you the link for these lists if you cannot find it online yourself. You can google the store name and find it on their websites.
This is going to help you out so much in 2009. If you begin January 1, 2009 buying your generics OFF YOUR DRUG PLAN, you will not go into the “dreaded donut hole” as quickly in 2009. Now wouldn’t that just be fantastic??? Do not show the pharmacy your drug plan card and tell them this is NOT to be applied to your drug plan. Some people go to one store to buy their generics, and go to another one to use their drug card, just to avoid confusion.
For those of you who get to the other side of the donut hole and get 95% coverage, you DO NOT WANT TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE. YOU NEED TO GET TO THE 95% COVERAGE ASAP!!
Even though you are paying the generic co-pays on your Part D Drug Plan, the Drug Plan dings you a much higher retail price that goes toward your falling into the donut hole! So, you can see how that could keep you out of the donut hole so very much longer and then you will have more money in the pot to pay for your really expensive medications.
