Description: 

The Maine Bureau of Elder and Adult Services (BEAS) conducted a survey of drug prices in Maine pharmacies, and have made the results of that survey available on the Internet. In addition, they have created an online "Drug Pricing Calculator" which allows consumers to indicate specific combinations of drugs they may need, and the area of the state where they are located. The tool shows the total cost of the drug combinations they selected from each pharmacy in their area.
