Horizon's Joel White is teaming up with Rural Minds for a webinar THIS THURSDAY exploring the Inflation Reduction Act's impact on Medicare. Learn why Part D premiums went up in 2024 and what kind of pricing seniors can expect to see on October 1 when they sign up for 2025 coverage. #webinar #healthcare #seniors #InflationReductionAct #Medicare #drugprices
Next Thursday at 2 PM ET, Rural Minds and the National Grange will present the third rural mental health Connections webinar in the 2024 series: “Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage: Changes Under the Inflation Reduction Act.” The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is one of the most consequential healthcare laws since the Affordable Care Act was signed into law. Featuring a presentation from Council for Affordable Health Coverage President Joel White, this 45-minute webinar will identify new Medicare insurance coverage benefits for patients enrolled in Medicare Part D, which provides coverage for prescription drugs. Medicare beneficiaries in rural America will gain an understanding of how to access these new benefits, as well as potential unintended consequences of the Part D benefit redesign, including access to treatments and changes to plan premiums and formularies.
