Medicare doesn’t pay for drugs. You need to get a separate prescription drug plan, Part D. You also need to shop around for a plan that is most favorable for the drugs you take. It’s different for everyone. That’s why they have that form you fill out in Medicare.gov where you input all of your drugs. I’ve been on Medicare for several years, and have chosen a prescription plan that benefits me the best. Don’t blame Medicare necessarily, do some homework and you may find a better plan. Unfortunately, you will have to wait until next open enrollment to make a change.
I have Part D.......paying $25/month. And I did fill out all the paper work. None of my drugs is new, so no reimbursement for R and D. So fed up.
