Psquared - I wish I had read your post a few months ago concerning the actinic keratosis. Indeed, I just spent $500 for the doctor and Efudex cream. Ugh.

You asked for the Medicare rate, so are you on Medicare?

Or for anyone on Medicare...spouse will turn 65 in March, and we are told we have to sign up for a Medicare drug plan. But we don't take routine prescriptions now, so why spend $30 a month for a plan for drugs that we don't use, or get a plan that we don't know if the drug will be covered if we need a prescription.

Currently, we pay our own medical insurance that does not include prescriptions. So for an occasional prescription, it is paid out-of-pocket.

But if we don't sign up for a Medicare drug plan now, there will be a penalty in the future to get a drug plan.

Anybody else dealing with this Medicare stuff? thanks.
