Drug makers end elderly help as Medicare kicks in
Drug makers including TAP Pharmaceuticals say they will end patient assistance for seniors and disabled eligible for Medicare Drug Benefit, citing new fraud guidance. The move affects hundreds of thousands seeking help with out of pocket costs while industry groups note many still rely on programs. Some firms keep aid for those who enroll in Medicare Part D or decline a plan, preserving support for the poor and uninsured.
