Seniors are panicky, confused and angry at the way Medicare partd is being handled. There are gapping holes in the plan when itis examined closely and most
people will not be able to take advantage of the ideal savingsbecause that ideal savings is based on a specific annual expense.
Here are some facts that may help answer the concerns and makethe issue a little clearer.
The Government is enforcing Medicare Part D. Proof of this isevident if considering the penalties individuals will incur bynot joining Medicare Part D by May15th.
The accumulative 1% penalty (per month) can become expensiveover time and looks counter productive. It seems more likely theGovernment agenda is geared
towards herding the public into a central plan and closing thedoors for international prescription imports.
Medicare Part D is great if individual retail expenses areexactly $2250 each year. The further away annual costs are fromthat perfect amount, the less effective the
plan is.
Medicare Part D is deceptive because it is presented as a 75%savings when in reality the savings are at best 60% when theperfect amount of $2250 is spent.
Medications that are not insured obviously reduce the savings.If you spend exactly $2250 retail on insured medications thenyour savings will be significant, probably
between 50% and 60%. So who will hit that perfect amount?
Here are some scenarios to consider: (Based on $250 deductibleand monthly premiums of $35)
* Spend $1200 on insured medications - Savings will be about 16%
* Spend $3000 on insured medications - Savings will be about 36%
* Spend $4000 on insured medications - Savings will be about 27%
The Perfect Situation:
* Spend $2250 on insured medications - Savings will be 52%
Anyone who is spending more than $2250 on prescriptions eachyear will be unhappy paying full retail after spending beyondthe $2250 mark, and possibly angry
when they realize the monthly premiums are still due.
Spokesman for Professional Services Canada Darwin Corby, hasthis advice:
"Sit down and calculate all your prescription expenses at fullretail by phoning a local Pharmacy. Get familiar with yourMedicare Part D costs. Add the $250
deductible and monthly premiums together with the %25 notcovered in the first $2250. Then add the full retail you will bepaying in the doughnut hole on top of your
costs. (The doughnut hole is the gap between $2250 and $5100)
Subtract the deductible, monthly premiums, doughnut holeexpenses and 25% from the savings to find your approximatesavings for the year. You also need to
understand that reaching the ideal savings is highly unlikely."

Recommendations:
Use a Canadian Prescription service to help avoid the Doughnuthole if expenses are high. Join a low cost Medicare Part D planto avoid the penalties if expenses are
low. Enquire about Canadian prescription prices to maximizesavings.
