The White House has released a report on the cost and availability of prescription drug coverage in the United States. The report examines each state to identify the current and projected beneficiaries, the number of companies that provide retiree health benefits, the average cost of Medigap plans which include prescription drug coverage, and the percent of Medicare HMOs which include prescription drug coverage in the basic benefit. The report concludes that prescription drug coverage is either unavailable or unaffordable for a large number of middle income Americans.
