Did not know what I was doing but I joined AARP Prescription drug plan. I don't understand how I will get help from medicaid with that. I qualify for help but don't know if I have to inform them or they find out on their on. Have you picked out one yet Al?

Hi Puff, how are you doing? This new prescription drug plan is really confusing.They say you can switch once a year, so if I don't like AARP I guess I'll switch.

Grandmainpain (and others interested), you could try calling the Medicare Number...I've found them to be very helpful, and they take all the time you need. The Admin is so determined to make this cockeyed plan work that they are bending over backward to help people sign up.

What really bothers me is that any plan you join can, w/ 60 days notice, delete any med from their formulary, yet you can't switch plans for a years.
Call me cynical, but I can't help but think there will be a Lotttttt of "bait and switch" going on.

I think that "plan" was all politics. Sounds like they made it so needlessly complicated. Might have been better to have just left well enough alone. Sounds like it is going to be ridiculously expensive, with no income levels considered. Ah, I am just getting too cynical nowadays. I hope it works out for you that are old enough. What is scary is that I am not that far from being old enough myself (well, not that close, but within a couple of generations Roll Eyes)

Okay mcshaun, maybe I should just wander the halls some more, eh?

Don't wander the halls just yet, PB. I ork with so many elderly folks, and no one can figue it out at all. Too many to choose from. My eldest client (970 (98 9n March) happened to be lucky enuf to have and old RR insurance company and Bless Her Heart she doesn't even use the Medicare Program. Of course, those days' are long gone...dang... but lucky for her she has it that was "grandfathered" in by her deceased husband. She did get the Medicare program "opportunity" but figures "Why, since I won't even be around to appreciate (or detest) it?" Her words....quite sound to me at that.
I worry about myself,husband and mostly what will happen when my son is an elderly person. I can only hope to invest wisely and keep something under the matress for him and his.
