Medicare Part D reimbursement help with Donut Hole

Medicare beneficiaries who fall into the Part D prescription drug coverage gap soon will receive checks for $250 to help cover the costs of the drugs, according to Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius
 
The first round of checks will be sent June 10. The government then plans to send checks monthly as people fall into the coverage gap. Information on the $250 rebate, as well as a plan to close the coverage gap by 2019 and other effects of the healthcare reform law, is contained in a new brochure detailing changes to the Medicare benefit.
 
This information will be sent to Medicare recipients in the coming weeks.
