Collins presses for prescription drug benefit in Medicare plan
U S Sen Susan Collins joined lawmakers meeting with President Bush to push for a Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit. The act would create a voluntary drug benefit with a $275 deductible and $35 monthly premium for non low income beneficiaries. Catastrophic costs above $3700 would be fully covered. An interim discount card begins in 2004 with extra aid for those below 150 percent of poverty.
