I also had to find a company selling prescription plans and I selected SilverScript for 25.20 a month. Every doctor takes Medicare and plan G and I’m saving 200.00 a month from my private health care which had a 5000.00 deductible.
To clarify, the Government charge for Medicare Part B ranges from $144 per month to $491 per month, depending on income.
