since i have a retiree prescription plan, i am not familiar with medicare part d. but i do know that there are local pharmacies that offer free/discount meds thru no cost plans. perhaps you might want to check out the two plans with which i am familiar:
http://www.coast2coastrx.com/index.php - free plan accepted by local pharmacies
http://www.freerxsaver.com/publix.php - publix also offers free antibiotics and diabetes meds; site provides location and med look-up
i hope the info does not boggle the mind! there are days when i find this stuff overwhelming!
