We must write our congressional representatives, with elections and the Medicare issues coming up,we need to put the pressure on. Also AARP has a campaign to improve Medicare and Social Security, send copies to them.
I made a copy of the body of my letter and filed it, so now I just bring it up and put another name and address on it. much easier that way.
Just my 2 Cents worth.

As for the suggestion from the team, Medicare patients don’t get those breaks. I certainly don’t have secondary insurance. I can’t afford it. I can’t afford my prescribed medications. Even with Goodrx biologics are cost prohibiting. We are being discriminated against and if we don’t fight we won’t get any help at all.

The Dr prescribed me a lotion that cost $1500. (VTAMA). Only the commercial insurance can get the discount card , that is a joke!! So, the system discriminates the Medicare and the low income people.

My insurance company won’t cover my meds and most pharmaceutical companies won’t give a break to Medicare recipients. It’s not fair!
