*Sources are at the bottom of the show notes*

Medication prices seemingly continue to increase year over year, so we want to provide as many solutions as we can to help you save money on your regular prescriptions. Part D and Medicare Advantage coverage are just one small part of the puzzle when it comes to what you might pay for prescriptions while on Medicare. Make sure you look at all options outside of your insurance coverage if you are prescribed expensive medications.
