QUESTION: Does Medicare pay for any kind of herbal or natural treatments instead of just prescription medication?

ANSWER: No, Medicare does not consider herbs true medications and will not cover these expenses.  I understand why you would want to know this because I have been in my local health food store and know how much the supplements many doctors recommend cost, such as Omega 3 fish oil, and antioxidant herbal additions to your treatment.

My advise to you if you want to use herbal supplements in addition to or instead of standard prescription medications is to find a Doctor in your area who deals with both ways of treatment.  Many herbs can interfere with your prescriptions, so you need to disclose everything you take to EVERY doctor you see.

There are recent studies that the herb Astragalus has been used in combination with other drugs to treat cancer and can boost the power of some types of chemotherapy.  Ginseng is another herb that can boost energy in cancer patients, and Glutamine can help with your digestive tract and the damage chemo does to your body.  Chronic inflammation is known to fuel the growth of tumors and Omega 3 fatty acids in fish oil and flaxseed are potent anit-inflammatories that slow tumor growth.

Omega 3’s also help your heart and joints, so even though taking fish oil does not sounds very appetizing, they have caplets or flavored oil that goes down easily.

No matter what kind of treatment you choose, make sure that everything you take works well together and check with your doctor, or find one that has an open mind about both natural remedies and prescription drugs!

QUESTION: Ms. Blake, last year my husband, who was on SS disability turned 65.  During the enrollment period for a supplelment where he could NOT be turned down because of medical reasons, a Medicare Advantage rep talked us into going with (a certain MAPD).  It was all so confusing to us and what he said SOUNDED GOOD, but now that my husband is past that enrollment period, we know the truth and he would not be able to pass a medical exam for a Medigap/Medicare Supplement.  Is there any hope for us? Also, he is in the “dreaded donut hole”.

ANSWER: I am happy to tell you that because you were misled and you are within the 12 months of joining an MAPD, you can change back to a Medicare Supplement with no health questions and a stand alone Part D plan. You need to call Medicare directly and tell them about your situation and that you were confused about the benefits provided by the MAPD and the way the salesperson explained it to you was not clear.  They can enroll you back into the ORIGINAL MEDICARE SYSTEM. When that is done you can call us here at My Part D USA or someone else you can trust locally that will help you and KNOW HOW to deal with this process.  Also, if your income is low enough you can go to your local SS office and tell them you want to apply for MEDICARE PART D LIMITED INCOME SUBSIDY.  SS will send you a letter telling you if you qualified or not.  If you did, you MUST send a copy of that letter to your Part D plan provider, so they will know not to bill you for a premium, that you will have NO DONUT HOLE and all your drugs will be between 4 to 8 dollars for a 30 day supply.  If you cannot qualify for this, please contact the actual manufacturer of your husbands most expensive drugs, many times their income levels are higher to qualify for help and you can get discounts that way.  You can also shop around, not using your drug plan during the donut hole! There are also FREE DISCOUNT CARDS, you can download, as I have talked about on the blog before, just look in the category section.  Remember to read my other blogs about ways to MAXIMZE your drug plan beginning next January to NEVER buy your generics using your drug plan so you can save your c0-pays for the more expensive brand name drugs.  This will also keep you OUT of the donut hole longer each year.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:  If you laugh a lot, when you get older your wrinkles will be in the right places!

There you can sign the Medicare Reform Petition and read the names of the other 1,000+ people who signed it and their amazing comments.  Below is just a copy of the Top 10 List on that website, but please go to the actual website and read what real people are dealing with everyday on Medicare!!!

1. Medicare cannot negotiate better drug prices with drug companies.

Why are there are NO price negotiations between Medicare and the drug manufacturers? This is the reason the prices on your prescriptions have gone up so drastically over the last few years. Medicare should use its leverage, 44 Million Beneficiaries, to negotiate better prices. Instead, the government gave the insurance companies and drug manufacturers a blank check so that they could charge us as much as they pleased. You can only wonder how much money the drug and insurance companies must have contributed to political election campaigns. If you are still under the impression that we don’t need government regulations to stop corporate greed, you must be a CEO with your head in the clouds on your private jet.

2. Drug plans can change or cancel drugs they cover anytime, but beneficiaries cannot change their drug plans.

When you buy a medication that is not on the drug plan’s formulary and pay for it out of pocket, because you need it for survival, you cannot claim this expense toward your TROOP, True Out Of Pocket costs. Let’s assume that you have cancer and your doctor has found one particular drug that is now keeping you alive. If you choose to save your life and find a way to pay for this extremely expensive drug, this will not count toward your TROOP and help you reach the catastrophic coverage phase. If you could reach this phase, Medicare would pay 95% of your drug costs. Isn’t that so convenient for the drug and insurance companies?

No matter what the drug plan company decides to do, you are locked in for one year! They can decide NOT gattaca online to cover your drugs and make you pay retail with no help. How is that for a fair and honest system? If you don’t join a drug plan or cancel your plan when you find out that your drugs are not covered, you pay a penalty of 1% per month for life! So, why is it that the cards are stacked so high in the drug and insurance companies favor? If we hand over our health care to Corporate America and let them make decisions, this is what you get.

3. Prior authorizations too complicated. Step therapy too restrictive. Quantity limits are not set by doctors, but by the drug plans.

Another way drug & insurance companies try to opt out of paying for our medication is to impose prior authorizations and step therapy. They say this is to cut down on abuse. Instead, it creates a system where the insurance companies are in control of your medications. Drug and Insurance companies are now making decisions that ONLY A DOCTOR SHOULD BE ABLE TO DECIDE. Your doctor should be the only person who decides what medication you should be taking, not an insurance company. Should your insurance company be making decisions on how much medicine you need to cure or keep your illness in check? Guess again!! We have literally given Drug and Insurance companies carte blanche with deciding who lives and who dies in this country.

4. Drug plans were designed for the benefit of insurance companies, not beneficiaries.

Medicare works great unto itself. Everyone pays into the system so that we all have a certain degree of coverage in our retirement years. When you have a system that works, but try to have it re-designed by Drug and Insurance Companies, this is what happens. WE DESPERATELY NEED TO GIVE MEDICARE BACK TO THE PEOPLE!! When Corporations own a country, people become dollar amounts on a profit statement and your life is only worth how much they choose to pay out to keep you alive.

5. MAPD (Medicare Advantage Plans with built in Drug Plans) advertising is misleading. Seniors can’t understand the differences in types of coverage.

Medicare Advantage Plans have cleaned up, sweeping in billions of our tax dollars, but giving us inferior coverage at the same time. The plans they came up with are very confusing, and a total mess. There is no network of doctors that will accept the terms of payment from the MAPD’s. Your doctor or hospital could accept your MAPD plan at one visit, and decide not to take it at the next appointment. Now, Seniors and Medicare Beneficiaries are so confused they can’t understand the differences between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage Plans.

The drug and insurance companies purposely mislead you by saying that Medicare Advantage Plans offer more benefits than Original Medicare. They leave out the fact that someone with Original Medicare usually has a Medicare Supplement or Medigap Plan as well, whose benefits far surpass any Medicare Advantage Plan out there. You can choose your own doctors and hospitals anywhere in the country, and let your doctor decide what’s best for you, instead of some bean counter who is NOT working in your best interest, but the drug or insurance company he works for.

Why do we allow Drug and Insurance companies to deliberately create plans that are so complicated and confuse people to the point of overwhelming them? We all should understand that this is “great marketing” to take advantage of their confusion. Many times the slick salesperson will enroll Medicare Beneficiaries on MAPD plans not knowing if the plan will cover their illness or their medications. When you pay salespeople double and triple the amount to sell a certain kind of coverage, greed grows wild like kudzu covering the ground where “doing the right thing” used to prevail. Insurance Companies get rich at the expense of our health.

Another point of contention is when Independent Agencies and Salespersons ARE TRYING to do the RIGHT THING by offering plans that are BEST for each individual, they are routinely terminated and penalized by the insurance company for NOT selling what the insurance company WANTS them to SELL!!.

6. Drug Plan Comparison

• akon right now

shopping is supposed to begin Oct. 1, however Drug Plans do not send out ANOC (Annual Notice of Change) letters or updates on the next year’s formulary until it is too late.

Have you ever tried to find out what changes your drug plan is making for the next year’s coverage? It is like finding a needle in a haystack. You will be bombarded with tricky marketing pieces meant to confuse you, well before you receive the ANOC letter, many times too late for you to make a reasonable decision. Insurance companies have almost made these ANOC letters their last priority because they don’t want the beneficiary to change their drug plan. If every senior in America actually took the time to get a comparison of Part D plans Nov. 15^th through Dec. 31 and make sure they were on the drug plan that would save them the most money while covering all their drugs each year, the drug plans would be losing money. The drug and insurance companies have made this task so daunting and confusing, seniors just give up.

7. Unacceptable Two year waiting period for people on Social Security Disability.

Imagine being 55 and becoming disabled due to an illness or accident. You lose your job and insurance. You finally begin to receive your Social Security benefits, but they tell you that you will HAVE NO HEALTH COVERAGE FOR 2 YEARS! WHAT??? Many people’s health gets worse, ultimately costing the tax payer billions more in health costs, or they pass away before they can become eligible for Medicare Health Coverage in the United States of America. Ever heard of “nipping it in the bud”? It seems Medicare wants to eliminate the problem before they have to fix it.

8. Dreaded Donut Hole causes beneficiaries to stop taking needed medications.

Studies have shown that seniors in the “dreaded donut hole” STOP taking needed medications because they must literally choose between food and filling prescriptions. That is no exaggeration folks! We used to say “SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST”, but the insurance and drug companies have changed that to “SURVIVAL OF THE RICHEST”.

All Medicare Part D Beneficiaries receive $2,700 dollars WORTH (retail prices determined by each drug plan) of medications each year before they fall into the “dreaded donut hole” and MUST AGAIN PAY THE INFLATED RETIAL PRICES for their prescriptions with no help. When just one 30 day supply of some medications is so expensive, you can see how quickly that would add up. This causes the sickest of us to be unable to purchase needed medications.

One important way you can STAY OUT OF THE “DREADED DONUT HOLE” is to buy generics NOT USING OR MAKING A CLAIM ON YOUR DRUG PLANS. Pharmacies have begun telling Seniors that this is illegal. IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO PURCHASE GENERICS OFF YOUR DRUG PLAN. IT IS YOUR RIGHT! Your co-pays may seem small for a generic; however the drug plan dings you up to $40 or more, pushing you into the donut hole much quicker. This inflated amount goes toward falling into the donut hole, not your co-pay charges! You can see how NOT using your drug plan for these generics could keep you OUT of the donut hole even longer each year saving you more money. Some Pharmacies won’t allow beneficiaries to purchase generics OFF their drug plans forcing them into the donut hole. The reason is that pharmacies do not get as much reimbursement if you pay without making a claim. Please, don’t let this happen to you! Let the pharmacy know YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE WHETHER OR NOT TO FILE A CLAIM!

9. blade runner final cut divx download Drug Plans constantly passing the buck to Medicare for sorting out problems due to miscommunication and clerical errors.

Many people on Medicare have to wait months to get their drug plans to go into effect. No, it is not because they did not meet the enrollment guidelines. It could be because the drug plan procrastinated in submitting their enrollment to Medicare due to a clerical error and now tells the Medicare beneficiary their enrollment period has lapsed and are no longer eligible. The Beneficiary then goes back and forth between the insurance company and Medicare trying to correct a simple problem that seems uncorrectable. Medicare will tell them that the drug plan has not sent in their application for processing, the drug plan will say that Medicare will not approve the application due to inconsistency of a Medicare Claim number or date of birth on their records. How could such a simple problem keep someone from receiving health care and drug coverage? When did clerical errors become more important than a human life?

10. LIS or Limited Income Subsidy Programs are the BEST KEPT SECRET of Medicare.

Many people could be saving thousands of dollars, but are never told about the Low Income Subsidy Program.

download air buddies divx

You would not believe how many people go to the local Social Security office asking for help and are never told about “extra help” programs. Many people who could quality do not even know they exist. The drug or insurance companies certainly don’t talk about it. You would be hard pressed to find a salesperson that would take the time to explain or educate their customers.

We know of thousands of people across the nation in Mental Health Facilities, Nursing Homes, Hospitals, etc…that have never been asked if they have applied for extra help or been told there is such a program. For months or sometimes years, the Facilities or their families have had to absorb the costs for these medications. However, even if someone finds out and is enrolled on a LIS program, many times the very drugs they need are not covered by the particular drug plan they were assigned. WHY? Medicare will arbitrarily assign a drug plan without checking to see if your drugs are covered by the plan. The drug company does not care if your drugs are covered. People must know to check for themselves. Since these plans are so confusing they cannot understand all the complicated formularies of drugs covered by each of the more than 50 drug plans available in each state, all with different pricing.

As you can see, Medicare needs to change and reform their policies. Please take time to email your local, state and national officials with this Top Ten List. Pass it on to everyone you know, even if they are not using Medicare, their parents or friends could use this valuable information.

During the next few months the drug and insurance companies will begin to FIGHT to keep things as they are so they can continue to manipulate and control our very right to pursue health and happiness in these United States of America. Let them know you are not going to take it anymore.

You can also go to www. MedicareRights.org  and get involved with the reform efforts there as well. 

Every voice needs to be heard at this critical time to make real change happen for the good of every person on Medicare!!!

Let me know what you are doing….write to me at kblake@mypartdusa.org

ANSWER: Yes, many times you can save more money on your tier 2 or tier 3 drugs by using mail order.  It would depend on which drug plan you joined.  All you would need to do is contact the customer service number of your drug plan and ask them to help you get it started.  Also, ask them the prices to see how much you would save.  REMEMBER: IF YOU WILL BUY YOUR GENERICS OFF YOUR PART D DRUG PLAN AT WALMART OR OTHER LARGE RETAILERS FOR $4, YOU SHOULD DO THAT INSTEAD OF GETTING THEM BY MAIL ORDER.  THIS WILL KEEP YOU OUT OF THE “DREADED DONUT HOLE” LONGER EACH YEAR.  IF YOU WILL GET TO THE CATASTROPHIC COVERAGE OF 95%, HOWEVER, YOU JUST NEED TO APPLY ALL YOUR PURCHACES TO YOUR DRUG PLAN TO GET THERE ASAP!

QUESTION:

How will I know when I am getting close to falling into the “dreaded donut hole”?  Also, how can I see if my generics are being filed to my Part D plan or not?

ANSEWR:

You should be getting regular statements from your Part D drug plan telling you how much has been applied to your $2,700 limit before going into the donut hole.  You should also get a list of every purchase you have made for the month so you can see if the pharmacy actually DID NOT file a claim for your medications as you requested.  PLEASE READ THESE STATEMENTS CAREFULLY! Many times they can make errors and charge you for purchases you did not make and that could put you in the donut hole long before you should be, so READ, CHECK, STUDY your statements!  BE LARGE AND IN CHARGE of your own insurance claims and don’t “just assume” the drug plan will never make a mistake.  Remember the old joke:  When you ASSUME you make an ass out of u and me.

QUESTION: I am a Social Worker for a hematologist in Florida.  We have come across many issues with our patients’ that have Medicare and also have a supplemental insurance to cover the extra 20% that traditional Medicare does not cover.  It seems that in the past few months our patients’ supplemental insurance has now become their primary coverage.  They are having difficulties getting their medications paid for.  Our patients are confused about their plans as well as we are, (the nurses and myself).  I was wondering if there was some sort of educational meeting we could attend to be able to better inform our patients on what questions are to be asked when looking for the right supplemental insurance?

ANSWER: That is a great question and the answer is hidden between the lines.  Your patients have joined Medicare Advantage Plans not knowing that Medicare does not pay the claims anymore, but the actual insurance company does.  If your patient is on Medicare Parts A & B, Medicare would always be primary to pay the 80% of claims.  The Medigap/Medicare Supplement would pay the other 20%.  They would then get a stand alone drug plan to cover medications.

When your patient joins a Medicare Advantage Plan, they no longer have the same coverage or send claims to Medicare.  They would have a plan that also includes a drug plan from the same company.  Many times these drug plans are inferior, as I have said before.  Many doctors and hospitals do not accept this form of payment and will not take these insurance plans.  We can help get your patients back on Traditional Medicare combined with a Medigap plan and a stand alone drug plan that will cover all medications, just call our toll free number to speak with a Consultant that can also educate you on the differences between plans and taking away any confusion you may have.  Just read our TESTIMONIES on the right hand side to see how we have helped educate many, many people all over the USA.  Also, please read all my catagories on the left hand side where I go into much detail regarding many issues you need to know about.  I would also recommend that you go to Medicare.gov and read the many pages of info they have online as well.

Please be aware that we can help your patients apply for “extra help” programs to pay for their needed medications if they cannot afford them.  There are plans available that many folks still do not know about.  Just let me know how I can help!

THANK YOU FOR WRITING IN WITH ALL YOUR QUESTIONS!!!  I hope I helped you better understand these issues.

THE PIECE WAS ABOUT THE PRESIDENT OF THE LARGEST GROUP OF GENERAL MOTORS RETIREES, JACK DICKINSON, AND HOW HE IS HELPING THE OTHER RETIREES GET GOOD INFORMATION ABOUT THEIR TRANSITION TO MEDICARE.  HE ASKED ME TO WRITE A BLOG ABOUT MEDICARE ON HIS WEBSITE, WWW.OVERTHEHILLCARPEOPLE.COM.  IF YOU HAVE TIME, CHECK OUT THIS WEBSITE FOR SOME INSIDE SCOOP ABOUT THE AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, MANY OF THE FORTUNE 500 COMPANIES ARE CANCELING THEIR RETIREES’ DRUG AND HEALTHCARE COVERAGE.  WE ARE HAVING MANY OF THESE RETIREES COMING TO THE WEBSITE AND CALLING US TO GET HELP.

IF YOU DID NOT GET TO SEE US ON CNN, WE HAVE PUT UP A VERY SHORT FEED OF THE BROADCAST ON WWW.MYPARTDUSA.COM blades of glory movie YOU CAN CLICK ON THIS AND SEE THE STORY ABOUT GENERAL MOTORS AND HOW WE ARE HELPING THEM GET TRANSITIONED OVER TO MEDICARE BENEFITS.

IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE THAT IS DEALING WITH THIS KIND OF SITUATION, TELL THEM ABOUT THIS BLOG.  EVERYONE KNOWS THAT MEDICARE IS MORE CONFUSING AND OVERWHELMING THAN ANY OTHER TIME IN HISTORY, AND IF YOU DON’T MAKE GOOD DECISIONS ABOUT YOUR COVERAGE WHEN YOU FIRST JOIN MEDICARE, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO “UNDO” THE DAMAGE.

IT IS AMAZING TO ME THAT PEOPLE GET SUCH “BAD INFO” FROM SOME SALESPERSONS.  JUST LAST WEEK ONE OF OUR READERS GOT HOODWINKED BY A SALESPERSON INTO JOINING A MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLAN

.  THE SALESMAN TOLD THEM THAT THEY WERE GOING TO SAVE $600 A YEAR IN PREMIUMS.  COME TO FIND OUT, THIS 86 YEAR OLD MAN WITH HEART PROBLEMS WENT TO HIS DOCTOR AND HOSPITAL AND FOUND OUT THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT THE TERMS OF PAYMENT FROM THIS MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLAN, AND ALSO THAT THE BUILT IN PDP OR PRESCRIPTION DRUG PLAN DID NOT COVER ALL OF HIS MEDICATIONS.  HE CALLED US AND WE HELPED HIM GET BACK ON HIS TRADITIONAL MEDICARE SUPPLEMENT AND STAND ALONE DRUG PLAN

download man thing movie

THAT DID INDEED COVER ALL HIS MEDICATIONS.  FOLKS, PLEASE BEWARE AND READ MY OTHER BLOGS ABOUT MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLANS BEFORE YOU JOIN ONE, NO MATTER HOW GOOD THE SALESMAN MAKES IT SOUND!!!

AS I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFORE, IF YOU ARE JUST GETTING ONTO MEDICARE, YOU NEED TO GET A TRADITIONAL MEDICARE SUPPLEMENT TO PAY THE 20% THAT ORIGINAL MEDICARE DOES NOT COVER IN THEIR 80%.  IF YOU JOIN A MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLAN FIRST, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EVER GET A MEDIGAP PLAN BECAUSE YOU WILL THEN HAVE TO GO THROUGH HEALTH QUESTIONS AND UNDERWRITING. IF YOU JOIN A MEDIGAP/MEDICARE SUPPLEMENT FIRST, AND THEN DECIDE TO “TRY” A MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLAN, YOU HAVE A 12 MONTH PERIOD WHERE IF YOU DECIDE YOU REALLY DON’T LIKE THE ADVANTAGE PLAN YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH UNDERWRITING TO GET BACK ON THE BEST COVERAGE, WHICH IS THE MEDIGAP PLAN. THE MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLAN WILL NOT TELL YOU THIS!!!!!

THEN YOU NEED TO GET A STAND ALONE PART D PLAN.  PLEASE READ MY OTHER BLOGS ABOUT HOW TO MAXIMIZE YOUR PART D PLANS, AND HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST ONE.  YOU MUST GET A COMPARISON BASED ON YOUR INDIVIDUAL MEDICATIONS.

LET ME KNOW IF THESE BLOGS HELP YOU!  IF ANY OF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS, OR A PERSONAL EXPERIENCE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE TO HELP OTHERS, PLEASE WRITE TO ME AND I WILL PUT IT UP ON THIS BLOG.
