I was wondering if anyone knew of a program to help with drug co-pays.

I am on short term disability through work. I still have my group medical insurance and hope to return to work in a week or two part time.
I don't have medicare because right now, my group plan is at the point that it pays 100% of all medical/hospital/doctor bills for the rest of 2008.

My problem is that the prescription plan I have has copays, and I am up to about $500.00 a month in copays. Does anyone know of a plan or place that offers assistance?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Mikey  :usaflag;
