 <title>Prescription Drugs: Prices Available Through Discount Cards and From Other Sources</title>
</titleInfo>
<abstract>This report compares prices for prescription drugs purchased
using drug discount cards with prices available at local	 
pharmacies or over the Internet. Using a list of 17 drugs that	 
are among the most widely prescribed to the Medicare population, 
GAO documented prices from (1) five companies that administer	 
large drug discount card programs, (2) five Internet pharmacies, 
and (3) several retail pharmacies in four different areas.</abstract>
