The Senate approved adding prescription drugs for chronic diseases to Medicare beyond hospital care. The measure ties drug coverage to an 11 percent Social Security increase, raises the payroll tax from 5.85 to 5.9 percent, and lifts the wage base from 10,800 to 13,200. A $1 per prescription co pay applies, with a four yearly work bonus rebate for low income workers.
