Seniors - Beware
Seniors - Beware
By Freda B. Douglas
Several years ago, before I joined the Senior age bracket myself, I worked in a hospital business office. There I became aware of the problems seniors were
having relative to their insurance. Listening to their conversations I realized their problems were not limited to insurance. They had no place to turn to for solutions to their problems. As an employee of the hospital I was not able to even give the seniors who talked to me a suggestion and that left me totally frustrated.
Suddenly I was a senior and started feeling frustrated again - this time because I was the one looking for solutions to my own problems. Gradually I started to find my own answers and finally found a way to help fellow senior citizens. I started to write a weekly newspaper column, and even though my column had younger readers, most of my readers were fellow seniors, and if I had some information I thought would help them I wrote it into my column.
Now I am going to include the facts in this column that might help the seniors and any other age group I might attract. I am a frustrated school teacher and have always liked to teach. You may refer to me as “The Encourager”.
I am a believer in natural supplements and this time I would like to expound on costs of medical prescriptions. These facts were taken from an advertisement for Medicare Part D. The names of the prescriptions have been left out because I am sure there are other drugs used for the same ailments. Just look at how much money you, or your insurance company, are spending for your medication and ask yourself if there is something I can use that might perform as well that doesn t involve prescription medicine?
If you have high cholesterol your medicine could cost you $1300 a year.
If you are diabetic, your medication could cost you $2100 a year. If you have prostate cancer your medicine might cost you $6,000 per year and if you have an overactive bladder your yearly bill could come to $1400.
