I just had this happen again, this time with a generic controlled substance which cannot be mailed. My doc sent it to a local discount pharmacy (Benzer) and included my Part D Insurance coverage: $282 for three-month supply.

In the past I would have paid it. Now I know to question it, in this case learning that its cash price (no insurance) is $230, a no-brainer quarterly savings of $82. I really thought there would have been greater interest in this subject, but perhaps my fellow seniors had long been more conscious of this than I had been. In any case, here is one med on which I save $328 a year that I can then use for something else altogether.
