Compare drug prices on Medicare
WOW! Medicare Just Helped A Lot with
Their Website Additions
By Tucker Sutherland, editor
April 29, 2004 - The Medicare Website just got a whole lot better
today with the addition of their new program for selecting a Medicare
drug card that best fits individual needs and allows a comparison of
drug prices in all areas of the country. And, it is easy to use.
Before you begin, be sure you have the names of the
drugs you need and the prices you are currently paying.
Go directly to the price and plan comparison page:
Click Here or use the complete url below.
http://www.medicare.gov/AssistancePrograms/home.asp?version=default&browser=IE%7C6%7CWinXP&language=English&defaultstatus=0&pagelist=Home
Scroll to the bottom of that page and start filling
in the information. When you get to the page that lists the approved
drug programs for which you are eligible, you will also see a Price
Compare button. This takes you to the actual comparison of prices on
the drugs you need.
The site is not totally complete, says Medicare,
but it will be updated every Monday.
It is a very helpful addition to making decisions
about the cards, which go on sale on Monday, May 3.
The main Medicare site is
www.Medicare.gov.
