Medicare questions
 

I have to select a plan and I am so confused. I guess they automatically enrolled me and I currently have original medicare?
I need a good prescription plan does anyone have any suggestions??

Canada. Don't know how much you would save with Medicare prescription coverage.

Each state has their own plans. You should have received by now your Medicare & You 2011 booklet which list the plans available in your state/county.

Open enrollment ends 12/31 so you really do not have much time left. Check with CVS, Walgreens, AARP, etc. for free workshops. They will help you pick out the ins plans that best fits you & fill out the paperwork for you. All you have to do is sit back & let them do all the work for you. :D
Check w/your local social service department to see if your state/county has FREE health plans that will pay the premiums as well as pick up the slack that the Medicare drug plans does not pay.

You can call Medicare: 1-800-633-4227 and/or visit their website & check out to see exactly what your state is offering.

Good luck!

The medicare website has a good site to evaluate plans. Depends on what your needs are you can pick an HMO or stay with traditional medicare. With traditional medicare you pay 20% co-pay unless you qualify for Medicaid whcih most people toatally reliant on SSDI qualify for then you are 100% covered, Traditional coverage allows you to pick your own doctors, no referrals, It's what I have. Kaiser is the highest rated HMO plan if your state has them, I would recommend that for HMO,
