Tools to Help Your Clients Maximize Their Pharmacy Benefits are Here!

This fall we kicked off the first phase of our Answers on Aging®¦Pharmacy Benefits program, a public education campaign developed, in collaboration with Walgreens, to spread awareness of the fact that as few as 12 percent of people with Medicare have the lowest possible total plan cost for their Medicare prescription drug coverage.

In September, you received the first components of the campaign toolkit and now we're pleased to share the full array of resources to help you get the word out on this important issue.

These tools will help you prepare for phase two of the campaign: public education and outreach to support Pharmacy Benefits Week (PBW) on January 25-29, 2016. PBW will serve as a catalyst for discussion with your clients about getting the most out of their Medicare prescription drug plans in the new year.
 
We hope that you've already begun to think about a date in late January to hold an event, and now that you have all of the campaign tools, including an event poster, flyers, infographic and MUCH more, it's time to get the buzz going and build excitement in your community!
 
This initiative also provides you with the opportunity to connect with a member of the Walgreens regional leadership in your area. They are eager to support your efforts to promote PBW and the Answers on Aging®¦Pharmacy Benefits program in your community. To reach the Walgreens Regional Health Director in your area, please contact Sarah Casiano at scasiano@n4a.org
