Good for Publix. But my point is that you need to get oriented on discount prices before you start Part D shopping, and if you have located sources that sell drugs cheaper than insurance co-pays, you need to plan not to use your insurance for them--and leave them out of the drug list when you go part D shopping on the Medicare Plan Finder website....The discount plans that nisiprius mentioned, do not report to CMS. However, I use Publix Pharmacy and they maintain subscriptions to GoodRX, Paramount, and other discounters. Whenever I pickup my prescriptions, I automagically receive the lowest price, whether it is my Part D plan or one of the discounters previously mentioned.
Also, I use Mark Cuban's Cost Plus...
And if you haven't stepped into this world of wonderfulness, "cheaper without insurance" is not some little -5% or -10% difference, it can be like a $40 co-pay on your insurance but $17 without insurance at a discounter.
