PDP Plans for 2009

[MedSuppPro]

Interesting doing a google search on First Health is that a Advantra website comes up.

Those will be my go to plans...

Only problem with First Health, it was sold direct last year. With such a low ball premium, they will not have to pay agents, and can write through an inbound non-agent order taker.

Well then looks like it's Advantra and BCBS.

I do wish they did online enrollments. They also were slow in payment.

Oct. 8, 2008 - Senior citizens may be in for a big surprise if they just renew their Medicare Part D drug plan this year, without checking the details - like the premium, co-pays and deductibles. The cost for 2009 may be substantially higher than it was in 2008. This seemed to be the message being delivered today by Kerry Weems, acting administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, in a telephone news conference.
