Medicare Part D Deadline

Posted by Kathy Quan May 5, 2006

Members of Congress have tried and will continue to try to set back this deadline, but they may or may not be successful. The deadline is set for May 15, and costly fines may apply for those who don't sign up before then.

Please review your medications and options and make the necessary arrangements to meet this deadline. If it is successfully delayed you may have other options in the future, but don't get yourself into a bind.

You can find out more about your specific medication costs and plans which will give you the best options by comparing plans at the Medicare site.
