Did you miss the Part D Open Enrollment?
Enrollment for the Medicare Part D prescription drug plans ended December 31, 2007. Fortunately, Massachusetts residents can still join a Medicare Part D plan by enrolling in Prescription Advantage, the state’s pharmacy assistance program. Medicare allows Prescription Advantage members to join a Medicare plan without having to wait until next November.
If you are concerned about added cost, you will be happy to know that there is no charge for Prescription Advantage for members with an annual income less than $30,630 for a single person and $41,070 for a married couple. And, depending on your income and the Medicare prescription drug plan you choose, Prescription Advantage may help pay all or part of your Medicare prescription drug plan’s monthly premium, deductible and drug co-payments.
There is no reason not to have coverage for your prescription drugs. Call Prescription Advantage today for an application form.
You can reach Prescription Advantage Customer Service toll-free at 1-800-AGE-INFO (1-800-243-4636) or TTY for the deaf and hard of hearing at 1-877-610-0241.
