If you’ve spoken to me for 2 minutes about health care, you know a pet peeve of mine is a lack of pricing information available to John Q. Public.
When it comes to finding the best deal on prescription drugs, we have a great local resource – LesliesList.org. This site was created by Leslie Ramirez, a doctor at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Very easy to use! Just plug-in the name of your medication and go.
- Taking Crestor for your cholesterol? You can spend $5.97/pill at Walgreens or $4.73/pill at Target!
- Taking Lisinopril for your high blood pressure? You can spend 53 cents a pill at CVS or 11 cents at Kmart!
Even if you have a drug card with at $10 generic copay, you’re better-off just paying cash for all of the generics on the Walmart $4 Drug List. And if you’ve got an HSA without a drug card, every penny counts.
Don’t miss this site! It’s a great resource to use for yourself and to share with your employees.
