PRESCRIPTION DRUG PLANS
|
The Annual Enrollment Period for Medicare Prescription Drug Plans is
October 15-December 7 for people who are already on Medicare.
People who are new to Medicare can enroll in a plan three months prior
to their effective date for Medicare, in the month they become
effective, or three months following that month. They have a seven
month window to enroll.
The Medicare website helps narrow the choice of plans in North Carolina
to the least expensive 3 that will provide your medicines.
If you need assistance choosing a plan, come by the senior center to pick up a form that
will give us the list of your medicines. We will schedule an
appointment for one of our prescription drug clinics or call you when
you can pick up your comparison. A link to the form follows:

Medicare premium. These plans take the place of traditional
Medicare (Parts A and B) and a Medicare Supplement plan. More
