Limited prescription drug benefit for most veterans

March 6, 2010 by Cotton Rohrscheib

The cost of health care insurance continues to rise; many have to decide between purchasing food and their medications. Veterans are unfortunately not protected from this scenario. An estimated 40% of the 25 million plus living veterans have reached Medicare age. There is good news, as a veteran you may be eligible for relief.
Congress has passed a comprehensive veterans’ healthcare legislation though the V.A. that includes a limited prescription drug benefit for most veterans and substantial prescription drug benefits for many disabled and low-income veterans.
For more information on how to determine if you are eligible for this benefit, call our toll free number 1-866-331-1944. Again that number is toll free 1-866-331-1944.
