Competition works and we ordsprog

Competition works and we don't need price controls. The Medicare plan is saving seniors money; they're getting better coverage and it's costing taxpayers 20 percent less than originally forecast.

[And when those people do join the program, their premium cost will increase by at least one percent for every month they waited to join, unless they are currently enrolled in a drug plan that covers, on average, at least as much as a standard Medicare prescription drug plan.] Like other insurance, you must pay this penalty as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage, ... Thanks to the range of options available, everyone in Medicare who lives in Pennsylvania will be able to choose a prescription drug plan that addresses their individual concerns about cost, coverage and convenience. For premiums that are in many cases much lower than expected, seniors will be able to get Medicare-approved prescription drug coverage that will help protect their health as well as their savings.

As a result of the strong competition in Pennsylvania, Medicare coverage will include options that cost less and also that provide coverage that goes beyond Medicare's standard benefit, ... With better opportunities to save and to get the coverage that works for you, it's about time to start thinking about how you or someone you care about can take advantage of the new coverage.

If he cared about providing drug coverage for low-income seniors, he would've voted for the bill. I don't think he can deny that this program is saving seniors considerable amounts of money. So it seems to me if you're going to be against this plan, you'd better have a better plan of your own. And I don't think he does.

I'm glad I took the time to join a prescription drug plan. Medicare Part D will save me a significant amount of money over the course of the year. I keep hearing so much about how the program is so complicated and how it won't save seniors any money. That's just not true. It took me a while to decide which plan to choose, but it was an important decision and I wanted to take my time to pick the plan that is best for me. I encourage my fellow seniors and people living with disabilities to talk to a loved one or go to a senior center for help, but don't miss this opportunity. It works for me and it will work for you.

Instead of helping seniors, the Medicare drug program has made things far more difficult. Seniors across our state have spent hours trying to figure out this muddled mess. Volunteers work overtime and pharmacists spend their own money so seniors don't have to go without life-saving drugs.

Our goal with My Medicare Matters is simple. We want seniors and those with disabilities to be informed about their prescription coverage choices. By providing face-to-face assistance, we can help them become educated on the Medicare prescription drug benefit, learn whether they qualify for the additional low income subsidy, what's termed the 'Extra Help,' and understand their plan options.

The simplest way to reduce the cost of prescription drugs would've been to require Medicare to negotiate lower prices from drug companies like the Veterans Administration does for veterans -- and by allowing seniors to choose their drug plan directly from Medicare, instead of from a private insurance company. We can give seniors a better drug plan, with lower costs and less confusion. Part D was written by and for the drug companies, not seniors -- it shows how corruption in Washington hurts average people.

The thought of Medicare wasting vital resources on performance-enhancing drugs is unconscionable, especially at a time when the focus should be on providing life-saving medications for truly needy seniors. Seniors should never be denied life-saving drugs at the cost of providing non-essential drugs for others.

The state of the union today is that we have low-income Americans begging for their prescription drugs, and seniors are going without any coverage. The president has botched the Medicare so badly that it doesn't resemble a 'benefit' for most seniors.

Every uninsured person ends up costing those with coverage more money, ... That's why it's keenly important to CHP's efforts to maintain affordable coverage that we reduce the number of people without this protection.

I just received notice from my former employer explaining I'd have the option of enrolling in the Medicare Part D plan. I put it aside because I didn't feel like delving into the pros and cons.
