Copays Added for Prescriptions Under Medicare Plan
In Columbia the new Medicare drug benefit, starting Sunday, requires about 12 000 long term care patients and 2 000 disabled patients in Medicaid to begin copays for prescriptions they previously received free. Medicare will cover unlimited prescriptions after a 1 to 5 dollar copay, costing the average affected patient about 349 annually. Offsetting costs, the state will spend 6 million on adult diapers this year, with 12 cases per eligible patient.
