Good advisor
Just wanting some input from people who may be on Medicare. My husband retiring, effective July 9th & at that time will loose company insurance, needing Medicare to start July 1st. We have already faxed all the forms needed to apply for Part B. First time they were faxed, all 5 at same time & we get a call from SS that they're missing 2 forms. Now all have been faxed again. Have left 3 messages to check if everything needed has been received & if the Medicare will be started July 1st. We've still not received a response.
Main question for MS patients is how has Medicare with supplement worked out for you with your doctor appts & medications. Scary when for most there are a number of medications along with DMT. On the DMT have always had financial assistance & understand when go on Medicare can no longer get financial assistance. you apply for a grant.
