Hi Julie,
Check the Medicare Home Page at: http://www.medicare.gov/
Click on "Formulary Finder" on the first Page. This tool will allow you to find plans in your state that match your required drug list. There are Plans for different states so you can find a Plan for AZ by looking under the "Compare Medicare Prescription Drug Plans."

Hi David,
Is there a way to find out what meds will or will not be covered under
Medicare's Plan D program? I'm on Medicaid my case manger told me today
that Plan D is what I'll be switched to Jan. 1st. She said that I'll pay
$1.00 per prescription for generic and $3.00 for non-generic. Has anyone
heard this also?
