Open Enrollment for Medicare part D has started and will continue through December 31, 2009.
Now is the time to find out if your drug coverage has changed, the cost has gone up, and if you should change your plan.
Medicare Interactive, a FREE online quick-reference tool, puts easy-to-understand answers about Medicare benefits and options right at your fingertips. Medicare Interactive features details about which services are covered by Medicare, how Medicare works with other types of insurance, what to do in the prescription drug coverage gap, and much more.
The "Medicare Interactive Counselor" is made available to members by the AFT and the AFT-affiliated New York State United Teachers. Medicare Interactive is a resource provided by the Medicare Rights Center, the largest independent source of health care information and assistance in the U.S. for people with Medicare.
To use, enter your phrase, key word, or question in the "MI Counselor."
