Family and friends are also welcome to attend. “ E v ery o n e is encouraged to attend these w o rk sh o p s,” says Administrator Victor Vander Does. “The new Medicare Prescription Drug coverage begins January 1, but in order for the coverage to be in place, participants must sign up before that date. This first sign up period runs through May 15, 2005. You can sign up after that date, but coverage will be more expensive. The workshops will be helpful because, by using each participant's list of prescriptions, we will be able to show people their o p tio n s and give them printouts to take with them for use in evaluating the plans that are accepted by the pharmacy they would like to use,” Vander Does explained.
