Medicare advantage plans are NOT for us. They are for people with less medical problems because the premiums are so much cheaper.

Are you eligible for Medicare Part A? If you are thats wonderful and your monthly premium should be just over a $100.00 a month. Than you can purchase a Part B supplement for about $160.00 a month.

Part A pays 80% of your infusion cost.
Part B pays the other 20%.
You Pay nothing.

Part D is prescription coverage. If Medco is available in your area that is the best prescription coverage you can get. It costs $69.00 a month but I pay only$12.00 each for a 3 month supply of Mestinon, Cellcept and Prednisone.
$36.00 total for all 3 for three months. Mail order.

So $296.00 a month covers my infusions and all my MG medications.
