Welcome to a new edition of the Senior Review BY TERESA MCQUERREY

education programs that are often geared to the more mature citizens of the area. Volunteer opportunities abound around Payson and in outlying communities for the retirees who still want to stay active. Most groups are always looking for people to help. Both the Senior Center and Senior Circle need help, learn more about these in articles in this edition. The Mogollon Health Alliance always has a place for good men and women to join the fun of sharing time within the community by volunteering. For more information on MHA, call (928) 4722588. The Rim Country Historical Society can always use volunteers to work as docents at the Rim Country Museum and Zane Grey Cabin in Green Valley Park. The Library Friends of Payson, the Humane Society of Central Arizona, the many thrift shops that provide fundraising for nonprofits around the Rim Country could all use help. Also in this edition, you will find advice about the changes in medical insurance from long-time senior specialist Tom Russell and from Christy VanderMolen, community liaison with Payson Care Center. There is also an article about making the most from the drug coverage carried through Medicare, as well as information to help solve some of the mystery about home health care. Thanks for reading.

RIM REVIEW EDITOR

An ever-growing population of senior citizens calls the Rim Country home. These are not the once stereotypical rocking chair seniors; they are rocking seniors — active, involved, compassionate, caring, community-oriented men and women. They all contribute much to make the Rim Country the kind of place they want to be, and one from which we all benefit. There are all kinds of activities and services especially designed to meet the needs of the newly minted seniors and those who have enjoyed the venerable status for a while. The Pine/Strawberry area has programs provided through its Senior Citizens Affairs Foundation at the Community Center. These include congregate meals and the Meals-onWheels program. More details are included in this special edition of The Rim Review. Older residents in Pine and Strawberry have lots of opportunities to get together for all kinds of crafts with the quilting groups and the Arts & Crafts Guild; to serve their fellow citizens through participation in the Library Friends and Historical and Archaeological Society and the various citizens’ groups. Payson has its Senior Center and the Senior Circle providing services and activities for older residents. The facilities providing skilled care also offer

Senior Center offers food, fun and music The Payson Senior Center offers the older residents of the Rim Country food, fun, music and more. The goal of the Senior Center staff is to identify and develop a wide variety of activities and events that suit the needs of seniors in a fun and healthy atmosphere. Every weekday there is a hot meal served at noon in the dining room. All you have to do is make a reservation by calling (928) 474-4876 at least 24 hours in advance. The month’s worth of daily menus is available at the front desk at the Center; a donation of $4 is requested from those 60 and older and $5 from those under 60. The Payson Senior Center

is also responsible for distributing the Meals on Wheels to program participants in the Payson and Star Valley areas. To register for the Meals on Wheels program, seniors or their care providers must first contact the Pinal-Gila Council for Senior Citizens at 1-800-2939393. Joann Conlin, executive director for the Senior Center said there are about 40 people at the facility for lunch each day and around 135 Meals on Wheels delivered daily. The Senior Center also provides transportation to the area’s elderly. The service is demand-response, CONTINUED ON PAGE 4

Variety of activities at the Center keep seniors busy FROM PAGE 3

meaning the participants tell the drivers where they want to go and when they would like to be picked up and taken elsewhere or returned home. Conlin said drivers take riders to shop, to see their doctor or dentist, even to visit a friend on the other side of town. She cautions the seating is limited and it fills fast, so reservations must be made. Membership at the Senior Center is $15 a year and with that, participants can enjoy a variety of activities, plus discounts from area merchants. Some of the current activities offered are: bridge, canasta, pinochle, dominos, bingo, Zumba Gold, Sit & Fit, gentle and basic yoga classes, wood carving, Friday movies, a variety of weekly musical groups, Bible study, monthly speakers and free blood pressure checks from Payson Care Center. Benefit experts and others offer-

ing legal advice also visit the Senior Center on a regular basis. The facility hosts the Alzheimer’s disease support group, which meets at 1:30 p.m. the first and third Wednesday of every month, and the Rim Country Coalition, which addresses a number of senior issues the fourth Friday of the month. Members and prospective members with a particular interest or hobby that they would like to see added to the existing activities schedule are encouraged to make recommendations. Rim Country seniors, 50 and older, are invited to join for fun, friendship and becoming an active member in the community. The Senior Center is also in need of volunteers willing to take on part of the “honey do” list that needs to be done. Call the Center at (928) 474-4876 or stop by at 514 W. Main St., Payson, for details.

Donate to Senior Center, get credit on tax bill Arizona tax law provides a tax credit for contributions made to certain charities that provide assistance to the working poor. Payson Senior Center is an approved 501(c) 3 non-profit organization that has been helping Rim Country seniors and disabled for 27 years in achieving and maintaining self-sufficiency with dignity and offering choices of appropriate care by providing a wide range of community and home-based services. The Senior Center provides about 36,000 meals and 9,600 rides to Rim Country seniors and disabled annually. How the tax credit works

Anyone who pays state taxes may be eligible for the tax credit, which is not the same as a deduction on your income tax form. For example: if you owe $1,000 in state income tax, and you donate $400, you

may subtract the $400 from your tax bill and pay the state only $600. You can even use your $400 donation as a federal income tax deduction. The Arizona Working Poor Tax Credit can be taken in addition to the private and public school tax credits offered by Arizona. Frequently asked questions

Question: Do I get money back? Answer: No. This tax credit redirects the taxes you would normally pay the state to qualifying charitable organizations. Question: I currently use the Public Education Tax Credit. Can I do the Working Poor Tax Credit too? Answer: Yes. Each tax credit is independent. Therefore, you can take advantage of the Public Education and Working

Poor Tax Credits as well as the Private School Tuition Tax Credit. Question: How much can I give? Answer: $400 for married couples filing jointly and $200 if filing single. Please consult your tax advisor for specific questions related to your tax situation. Question: How do you utilize the Working Poor Tax Credit dollars? Answer: 100 percent of these tax credit dollars go to the Senior Center’s Meals-OnWheels, Congregate Meal and Transportation programs. Question: How do I donate? Answer: You can donate any time during the year. Checks should be made payable to Payson Senior Center. They can be mailed to or dropped at 514 W. Main St., Payson, AZ 85541. The Center also accepts credit cards.

2014: The new Health Care Law and its impact BY TOM RUSSELL

With Medicare and Medicaid spending projected to grow from less than 5 percent to near 10 percent of GDP (Gross Domestic Product) over the next 10 years, it’s realistic to expect some eventual changes to these programs. However, that debate lies in the future, and in 2014, Medicare, Medicare Supplements, Advantage Plans and Part D Rx plans will essentially work as they have in previous years. For people under 65 who do not receive their health insurance through their employer, look for big changes. The Federal enrollment Web site opens Oct. 1, 2013 for health plans with an effective date of Jan. 1, 2014. The first year of the law’s enactment will have an extended enrollment period to March 31, 2014. The new law requires your guaranteed acceptance by insurance companies, regardless of your health conditions. Those choosing to go without insurance will be subject to a tax penalty. In 2014, the penalty will be $95 per adult in the family,

plus $47 for each child, or 1 percent of your income, whichever is greater. By 2016, these penalties rise to $695 per adult, plus $347 per child, or 2.5 percent of income, whichever is greater. One professional compared understanding the new health care law to trying to drink from a gushing fire hydrant. The bill’s 2,700 pages have grown to more than 20,000 pages of regulations. Even health care, insurance and legal professionals have difficulty getting their arms around it. Let’s use examples to make it a little easier to grasp: Example A) Steve and Mary do not have employer-based coverage. As a family of four, Steve and Mary earn $65,000 a year. They apply and the enrollment Web site “pings” the IRS and other agencies to confirm income. The Web site instantly informs them they qualify for a subsidy. Starting January 1, the government will pay a sizeable percentage of their premium to the insurance company and the insurance company will bill them each month for

the difference. The Affordable Care Act’s subsidies apply to an individual earning up to $43,000 per year, and a family of four earning up to $94,200 (up to 400 percent of the Federal Poverty Level). The lower your income, the higher the subsidy. To receive a subsidy, one must apply through the Federal Web site. Those individuals and families earning less than 138 percent of the Federal Poverty Level will not use the online enrollment Web site. They qualify for MediCAID (not to be confused with Medicare), since the State of Arizona recently approved the new law’s expansion of Medicaid. Example B) John and Susan are in their fifties, and together earn $130,000 a year. John opens his policy and checks the issue date, discovering he has a “Grandfathered Plan.” Grandfathered Plans must have an effective date prior to March 23, 2010, when the law was passed by Congress. John calls his health insurer to confirm CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

health insurance broker. Though not all individual/family plans will be listed on the Federal exchange, all insurance companies must follow the standard templates (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) and offer guaranteed acceptance during the annual enrollment period. This uniformity (comparing apples to apples) makes it easier for consumers to compare. Example E) Ann owns a health plan she acquired in 2012, so it is not “grandfathered.” However, her health plan was designed by her insurance company to be compliant with the 2014 Federal requirements, and will automatically roll into the new system with no action on her part. She now carefully reads all the mail coming from her insurance company, and they let her know exactly what she needs to do, if anything.

that yes, he has a Grandfathered Plan. He decides to do nothing, and keep his present coverage. His insurance company will send him a certificate every year, which John can include with his tax return proving that he has a Grandfathered Plan, and will not be subject to a tax penalty. Example C) Ruth does not have health insurance. She has pre-existing conditions, and was declined for coverage in past years. She applies during the upcoming Annual Enrollment Period, gets notification that she qualifies for a subsidy, and is GUARANTEED coverage with an effective date of January 1. Example D) Eric and Lois purchased a health plan in 2011, so it is not “grandfathered.” They also make too much to qualify for a subsidy. However, they want to compare plans to see if they can save Concerns For many years as a health insurance money. Eric and Lois look at the plans listed on the Federal online exchange.

Senior Circle offers education, fun, fellowship Payson Regional Medical Center’s Senior Circle is one of the fastest growing groups in town. And it’s no wonder. Membership is only $15 a year and the benefits are enormous. With more than 2,000 members, Senior Circle offers programs and events that range from health education presentations by area doctors, luncheons at which to socialize, exercise classes and a wide variety of activities and games, along with access to discounted travel and purchases from area merchants. Health education

Senior Circle’s main focus is health education and wellness for people in the Payson community who are 50 years of age or older. Jan Parsons, Senior Circle advisor, explains that by far the most popular events at the Circle are the “Doc Talks” or, as they are commonly referred to, Lunch and Learn. “A light lunch is offered free of charge and members have the opportunity to listen to our local physicians speak about common health issues. We try to keep the programs varied and offer topics that affect most people our age,” Parsons said. The topics and presenters for July through September are: menopause and post-menopause with Dr. Ed Waechter, July 10; Medicare physicals with Dr. Jennifer Dumbolton, July 24; dentures and implants with Dr. Charles Beier, Aug. 7; hepatitis CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

health insurance, but cannot get it because of pre-existing conditions. The new law addresses this, and that’s a good thing. But the cost? Rates will likely increase. Ohio, for example, posted January 1 individual/family health plan rates showing an average 88 percent increase. Concern abounds that younger people, after seeing the high rates, will opt out of coverage and take the tax penalty. The Affordable Care Act needs a solid start to be successful, and if too many healthy people opt out it leaves a higher percentage of people with medical condi-

tions, causing the rates to spiral higher. There’s also concern about employers cutting their employees back to less than 30 hours a week, avoiding the mandate to offer health insurance. Also, some smaller companies may face pressure to drop their group plans, since keeping lower-wage employees on an employer group plan disqualifies them from receiving subsidies through the online Federal exchange. For larger companies with more than 50 employees, the new law has a penalty for not offering coverage, and those who work for larger companies may see few if any changes to their current health insurance

benefits. Though the Affordable Care Act may struggle as it gets up and going, there’s hope we will eventually work through all the kinks, much like the Medicare Part D Rx program got off to a slow start, but has turned out to be successful. Time will tell. About the author

Members can also enjoy socializing while playing pinochle, Bunco, Mexican train dominos and the recently added, and currently most popular, mahjong — a game with tiles that originated in China and is commonly played by four players. It is similar to the card game rummy. Mahjong is a game of skill, strategy and calculation and involves a certain degree of chance. Additional social opportunities, and special health benefits are available to members through several exercise programs. The Senior Circle offers Qigong, Zumba Gold and Feeling Fit classes. The Feeling Fit exercise program can be done standing or sitting in a chair for those seniors who have arthritis or who have

problems with their balance. Each program is offered twice a week. The area Taking Off Pounds Sensibly (TOPS) meets at the Senior Circle, though it is not part of the programming for members. If you like to dance or would like to learn, a ballroom dancing class and a line dancing class are also offered. Line dancing builds cardiovascular and muscular strength as well as flexibility. Through Senior Circle, members are offered substantial discounts to the Tonto Apache Gym, which provides weights equipment and a covered pool. Dues are $52 per quarter (3 months). Open enrollment through Senior Circle occurs in July and October. CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

Payson Care recognized by health care industry Payson Care Center’s advanced wound therapy program has been receiving substantial recognition in Northern Arizona. After implementing the successful Closed Pulse Irrigation (CPI) wound treatment program, patients began to see significantly improved healing times. As a result, health care industry referral sources have come to rely on Payson Care Center for successful outcomes on the treatment of these complex wounds often related to

diabetes or amputations. Some of these patients come from 100 miles away, or further, traveling long distances from home, family and familiar surroundings. Payson Care Center’s hospitality suite and short-term transition rooms often accommodate the patient’s family while the patient is undergoing short-term rehabilitation or postacute care. Additionally, Payson Care Center has earned the reputation of having the ability to take on high acuity patients not

only in regard to wounds, but also because of their ability to treat tracheotomy patients and those requiring a higher regime of IV antibiotics. “One notable downside to taking on complicated wound cases,” says Sam Loveless, executive director of Payson Care Center, “is the negative impact it can have on a 5-star rating. The star rating is the way Medicare evaluates the quality of care given by a skilled nursing facility. Medicare does not distinguish

between patients who are admitted with a wound and the few who may develop a wound or skin tear while in our care. Despite the negative effect this can have on our facility’s rating, our focus is to regain the quality of life of the patients that are referred to our facility.” Payson Care Center is one of 228 facilities owned and managed by Life Care Centers of America, one of the largest health care organizations in the U.S. Payson Care Center was the first Life Care

Center to be built in Arizona in 1983 and it currently maintains the capability to care for 121 patients and residents. In addition to caring for higher acuity patients in their short-term rehab unit, Payson Care Center is home to 75 long-term care residents. Exciting changes are taking place at Payson Care Center. The remodeling of the short-term rehabilitation unit is almost complete and a local artist will soon be displaying renderings of Northern Arizona throughout the building.

Take advantage of your Medicare Window BY CHRISTY VANDERMOLEN HEALTHCARE SERVICES LIAISON PAYSON CARE CENTER

What happens when you have been discharged from the hospital after a surgery or illness and find that you need additional care or recovery time? Medicare regulations allow patients to be admitted to a post-acute care facility (skilled nursing or rehabilitation center) within a 30-day period, it’s known as the Medicare Window and you don’t need to be re-hospitalized. The same “window of opportunity” may

apply if you were admitted to a skilled nursing facility after a qualifying hospital stay, were discharged home and then experienced a decline in your health. To qualify for the 30-day Christy VanderMolen Medicare Window you must: • Have received Part A Medicare benefits in a hospital or skilled nursing facility within the last 30 days.

• Require daily skilled nursing care or rehabilitative services • Have days remaining in your original skilled nursing Part A 100-day benefit period. • Be readmitted under physician orders. We hope you never need to use this option, but want you to be aware that it is available. You worked hard for your benefits and deserve to use them. If you have any questions or if I can be of any assistance, please contact me at (928) 951-2305.

Pine Strawberry seniors offered food, family Seniors — that’s anyone 50 and older these days — can find good food, fun and family at the Pine-Strawberry Community Center’s dining hall and thrift shop. The meals served at the dining hall can be as simple as a nice salad, or you can enjoy a full and filling lunch, and both are available for reasonable prices — the salad bar is $3 per person; the full lunch, and the Meals on Wheels entrée, are just $5. The salad bar is open at 11:30 a.m., Monday through Friday and lunch is served afterward.

Become a member of the Senior Citizens Affairs Foundation, which runs the community center, and get $1 discount on the meals. Membership in the SCAF is only $5 per year, according to Rhonda Bossert, who manages the Pine Thrift Store at the community center. Meals are not served most holidays, though for the past several years, special efforts have been made to provide both a Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner at the Community Center Dining Hall. It is recommended participants make a

reservation at least a day in advance at (928) 476-2151, which is the same number people can call to arrange for the Meals on Wheels program in the area. Just speak to manager Terry Burkhart or the cook on duty. After lunch, there is always something to do at the dining hall: poker is played on Monday; canasta is played Tuesday; Bingo is either Wednesday or Thursday, depending on the players’ choice; and on Fridays visitors can play either poker or bridge.

Travel

A certain segment of the Senior Circle’s membership enjoys the travel opportunities offered, Parsons said. A variety of trips are being planned for the next several months. AZ Trails Travel of Fountain Hills handles most of the Senior Circle’s travel programs and, through it, members are connected to other providers for some trips. The next trip is a 10-day tour of Ireland, which is through Collette Tours. That trip is Sept. 1-10 and there is still time to sign up. The cost, which does not include airfare, is $2,099 per person, double occupancy (the rate is more for a single and less for a triple). A trip to the Albuquerque Balloon Festival, through Free Spirit, is planned Oct. 8-11 and costs $775 per person, double occupancy, which includes ground transportation. CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

Elderly especially susceptible to the heat Many people might choose a nice, hot day over a blustery, cold afternoon. However, excessively hot days can not only feel uncomfortable, but they can also prove life-threatening. Elderly men and women, in particular, are susceptible to the effects of hot temperatures. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, people ages 65 and older are more prone to heat stroke and heat-related stress than those of other ages. Seniors’ bodies are not able to adjust to sudden changes in temperature as quickly as younger people’s. A chronic condition that affects the body’s response to heat, as well as taking certain prescription medications also may play a role in seniors’ susceptibility to the heat. The City of Sacramento Department of Parks and Recreation says that around 370 deaths from heat-related illnesses occur across the United States each year. Nearly half of those deaths are people who are 65 and older. Prolonged heat exposure can take quite a toll on the average person. Factor in the more delicate health of many seniors, and the hot weather can be quite dangerous. Further compounding the problem is higher energy costs.

Seniors living on fixed incomes may not be able to afford to turn on air conditioners because of the power draw. There are different types of heat-related injuries, but heat exhaustion and heat stroke are the most common. Here are signs that a person may be experiencing one or the other.

During periods of extreme heat, check on an elderly friend or family member at least twice a day to ensure that he or she is not experiencing symptoms of heat exhaustion or heat stroke.

Heat exhaustion

• weakness • tiredness • heavy sweating • paleness • dizziness • nausea • vomiting • fainting • fast, weak pulse rate • headache • fast and shallow breathing Heat stroke

• extremely high body • temperature (over 105 F) • red, hot and dry skin • absence of sweat • throbbing headache • dizziness • nausea What to do

Friends or family members should check in with an elderly relative or friend when the weather is especially warm to ensure they’re safely handling the heat. In addition, people of all ages

can take the following precautions to keep cool when the temperatures rise. • Drink cool, nonalcoholic beverages. Water and diluted fruit juices can help rehydrate the body quickly. • Restrict physical activity. • Take a cool shower or bath or wipe yourself down with a damp cloth. • Seek an air-conditioned environment. For those who won’t or can’t turn on the air conditioning, visit a shopping mall or library to keep cool. Some towns and cities also make cooling centers

available in extreme heat. • Wear lightweight clothing. • Try to remain indoors during the hottest hours of the day. • Wear hats or use an umbrella to shield your head from sunshine outdoors. • Eat cool foods, but avoid extremely cold foods. Otherwise you risk the chance of developing stomach cramps. • Do not do laundry or turn on appliances that contribute to extra indoor heat. The heat is nothing to take lightly, especially when it comes to seniors’ health.

Seniors invited to drop in, get out of heat, visit FROM PAGE 12

“People can just come in out of the heat, turn on the TV or socialize,” Bossert said. Members of the SCAF also enjoy a discount at the Thrift Store every third Wednesday of the month. The store is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday, and frequently has “themed” sales, such as Western wear for rodeo weekends in Payson, pre- and after-season events.

Seniors and others looking for something to do this summer can always come down and see about volunteer opportunities. “We always need help for our Navajo taco sales at the arts and crafts festivals,” Bossert said. These are the program’s biggest fund-raisers. The Pine Strawberry Arts and Crafts Guild presents a festival each holiday weekend through the summer; the next will be Saturday, July 6 and Sunday, July 7 at

the Community Center; another will be held Labor Day Weekend. These always bring lots of visitors to the community and many residents turn out as well — and the Navajo taco lunch prepared by members of SCAF is one of the most popular events, so help is always needed to keep up with the demand. Call either the dining hall at (928) 4762151 or the thrift store at (928) 476-4633 for more information.

Home health care simplified The idea of home health care is simple. People who have a condition that requires home health care such as diabetes, heart failure, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension or cardiovascular disease can receive skilled care in the privacy of their homes. Currently, about 7.6 million Americans receive this type of care and statistics show that these patients generally recover faster, improve their quality of life and can eliminate or reduce risks such as infections. In fact, according to the U.S. General Accounting Office, home health care patients live longer lives thanks to the quality care they receive from home health professionals. Affordable Home Health Care

You might be thinking — sure, with personalized care comes a big price tag. But that’s not the case. If you or your loved one are Medicare eligible and qualify for home health care, there is no out-of-pocket cost to you. Home health care can also be paid for by many private insurance companies and state programs. Your home health care agency staff can verify insurance coverage for you and help eliminate stress and confusion at a time when you just need

Quality Medical Care

Providing quality, transitional care is what we do at Payson Regional Home Health. Your care is overseen by your primary care physician and our team of nurses, therapists and aides who are available on-call 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Simple ways Medicare Part D can save money Zumba Gold/Family Features photo

Zumba Gold classes are offered at both the Payson Senior Center and the Senior Circle; additional classes are held elsewhere around town.

Keeping fit and having fun as we age Regular physical activity at any age can help you live longer, feel better and reduce health problems. But far too many people, including baby boomers, don’t get the exercise they need. According to the 2012 Participation Report from the Physical Activity Council (PAC), 35 percent of Americans over the age of 55 are physically inactive. Since regular exercise helps control blood pressure, body weight, cholesterol and so much more, boomers need to find ways to get their bodies moving so they can live longer, healthier lives. “Though any amount of exercise is beneficial, ultimately adults should work up to getting at least 30 minutes most days of the week, as long as they feel comfortable and pain-free,” said worldrenowned nutritionist Joy Bauer. “From taking a Zumba class to walking and stretching, getting regular physical activity helps the joints stay loose, maintains muscle mass, and gets the blood flowing — all of which make everyday tasks easier.” The American Council on Exercise recommends older Americans choose exercise programs that include cardiovascular, muscle conditioning, and flexibility exercises. Low-impact, non-jarring exercises such as walking and swimming are good options. A key to sticking with a fitness program is making sure it’s enjoyable. A fun new program for older adults is Zumba Gold, a low-impact dance-based workout designed specifically for boomers and seniors. Workout routines combine salsa, merengue, flamenco and cumbia moves with fun music. For those that would prefer to work out in the comfort of their own home, there is also a Zumba Gold “Live it Up” DVD collection that offers 3 discs with workouts, as well as advice from experts in the fields of nutrition, brain health, enhancing your well-being and more. To learn more about Zumba Gold, purchase the Zumba Gold “Live it Up” DVDs and find a class near you, visit www.zumbagold.com.

The complexities of health care reform, an aging population and a higher incidence of chronic disease have created a growing need to help seniors enrolled in Medicare understand their benefits while managing health care expenditures. One area is Part D, Medicare’s prescription drug benefit program, where according to The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, more than 31.5 million people were enrolled in 2012. A recent Walgreens survey examining seniors’ understanding of Part D plans and health behaviors shows that more than one-third of those surveyed (37 percent) acknowledged daily concerns about their prescription drug costs. One in 5 surveyed said they’ve had to make sacrifices, such as delaying filling a prescription or skipping doses, to help manage medication costs. “It’s important for everyone to be able to afford the prescriptions they need, and with recent changes to Medicare and other programs under health care reform, it’s critical for beneficiaries to fully understand their options and ways to make their health care dollars go further,” said Dan Luce, director of pharmacy affairs for Walgreens. “If cost is preventing some patients from taking medicine as prescribed, as the survey shows, it’s always a concern because skipping doses or not refilling prescriptions can be a significant and costly barrier in treating illness. This underscores the need to educate Part D beneficiaries

about how they can save on prescription and other health care costs.” There are some simple steps that Medicare Part D beneficiaries can take today to potentially save on prescription drug costs: • Review your Medicare Part D plan. It is important to review your plan to make sure you’re taking full advantage of all the benefits offered. Ask your local pharmacy staff to review the plan with you and suggest any potential areas to save. • Talk to a pharmacist about cost concerns and ways you might be able to save. Switching to generic medications is just one simple way to save money. Also ask your physician if there is a 90-day medication supply option for any of your prescriptions instead of purchasing a refill each month. • Compare co-pay and other costs against your current plan and pharmacy and use a preferred network pharmacy if one is offered by your Part D plan. One pharmacy that participates in the preferred networks of four national Part D sponsors, Walgreens, offers savings of up to 75 percent (when comparing Tier 1 copays) on prescription co-pays over select pharmacies for a number of plans in which it is a preferred pharmacy. You can schedule Medicare Part D plan review appointments with a pharmacist and get further information at www.walgreens.com/medicare.
