Can beneficiaries keep their Medicare-approved drug discount cards after the new Medicare prescription drug benefit begins?
The Medicare drug discount card program was only a temporary program designed to provide beneficiaries with assistance in purchasing their drugs until the new Medicare prescription drug plans become available on January 1, 2006. Discount card enrollment will end on December 31, 2005, but the cards can remain in effect until a participant enrolls in a drug plan or May 15, 2006, whichever occurs first.
