I have really good prescription drug coverage through a pension plan. I have a copay rather than coinsurance so my part of the cost is always the same no matter where I get the drug. I am now in the catastrophic category under Medicare which means that my cost is even lower. This week, I picked up a prescription at Walgreens. The drug is inexpensive and I only needed 10. My copay was 60 CENTS! The pharmacy assistant at the drive thru window asked if she should put the charge on the credit card I have registered with them. I haven't paid with cash in so long that it took me a minute to remember that I have a small coin holder somewhere in my purse. 60 CENTS!

Yes, we are among the fortunate few to have insurance that continued into retirement as well - it has served us really well. A few years ago I switched to a plan with even better Rx coverage, and one of my husband's meds, which had a $135/mo copay is now $50 for 3 months. What a blessing not to be like many who have to choose between their meds and food or utilities - we are very grateful.
