The company just called me today. They wanted to see if I qualify for the medicare program that helps with the cost since I am on a advantage plan I could try but I didn'[t qualify because income was over $1600.00 per and then she said there is a non profit program that will help you out as long as your household is not bringing in over $50,000.00 per yr, ok we are not at this time so she put me in for that one and said they would give me a call.

She said my co-pay should be between $10.00 and $50.00 I asked so if I don't get any help how much would I have to pay out of pocket for co-pay, she said $1500.00 per month.

So if I don't get help I will not be taken these meds. I can not afford them I don't want to pay $50.00... I went from paying $1.10 per prescription to $6.00 - $45.00 per prescription that I am on now all because my husband moved to Philly with me and got a job. So moving to Atlanta with unemployment still kicked me out of the help I was getting for premium of medicare and my prescriptions.

I just remembered there was a reason why I was going to stay in Philly.
