Your medications shouldn’t break your budget.
But if you're struggling to afford them, you're not alone—and you’re not out of options.

The Problem

Prescription drug costs are rising, especially for brand-name or tier 3–5 medications.
Even with Medicare or Marketplace plans, people tell us:

“I can’t afford to fill all my prescriptions.”
“I’m skipping doses to make it last longer.”
“My plan doesn’t even cover this medication!”

No one should have to choose between their health and their wallet. But without guidance, many people don’t realize how much they could save.

The Guide

At Mere, we help clients across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida cut through the confusion and find real prescription savings.

From Extra Help to Canadian pharmacies, we know the options—and we can help you access them.

The Plan: 4 Ways to Cut Your Prescription Costs

1. See if You Qualify for Extra Help (LIS)

This is a federal program that helps Medicare beneficiaries with:

• Lower drug premiums

• Lower or no deductibles

• Significantly reduced copays

Many people qualify and don’t even know it—especially if they have lower income or limited assets.

We’ll walk you through the quick application.

2. Apply for Manufacturer Assistance Programs

Pharmaceutical companies often offer free or deeply discounted medications for those who qualify.

These programs are income-based and typically require:

• A simple application

• A copy of your prescription

• Proof of income or tax return

We can help gather the paperwork and submit it correctly.

3. Use Our Canadian Pharmacy Connection

We’ve partnered with a U.S.-based company, The Canadian MedStore, right here in Florida.

• Offers safe, licensed international access to medications

• Ideal for Tier 3–6 drugs not covered by your plan

• Does not affect your insurance

• Thousands of medications available at flat rates

Many of our clients pay as little as $50/month for medications that would otherwise cost hundreds.

4. Explore Medicare Part D Plan Reviews

Sometimes it’s not the drug—it’s the plan.

Each year, Medicare drug plans change their formularies, tiers, and preferred pharmacies.
We review your list of medications and find a plan that actually covers what you need, at the best price.

Real Story: From $180 to $15

Susan from Clay County was paying $180/month for a heart medication her plan barely covered. We helped her apply for a manufacturer discount and switch to a better Part D plan. Her new monthly cost? $15.

“I can finally afford all my medications again.” — Susan
