The Order of United Commercial Travelers of
America (UCT) chose UnitedHealthcare as its preferred Medicare
Part D prescription drug partner to improve your coverage. You’re
probably feeling better already.
Medicare’s prescription drug benefit, known as Part D, went into effect Jan. 1, 2006. The program, available only in the United States, is designed to save you money on your prescription drugs by providing you with coverage that helps pay for both brand name and generic drugs. Everyone who is entitled to Medicare Part A or enrolled in Medicare Part B is eligible for a Medicare prescription drug plan. Enrollment is voluntary and must be done through a private insurer like UCT. We know that prescription drug coverage is an important addition to your health insurance. That’s why UCT has partnered with UnitedHealthcare to offer you a choice of two affordable Medicare Part D plans: The UnitedHealth Rx Basic plan is a good choice if you don't take many prescription drugs, or if you think your drug needs will not change dramatically in the future. It includes brand-name prescription drugs, or their generic versions, covered by Medicare Part D. The UnitedHealth Rx Value plan may be a better choice if you take many prescription drugs, or if you think your prescription drug needs will change in the future. This plan includes most brand-name prescription drugs, or their generic versions, covered by Medicare Part D - with no annual deductible. The annual enrollment for Medicare prescription drug coverage begins Nov. 15 and ends Dec. 31. You can sign up for a Medicare Part D prescription drug plan at other times throughout the year if you are newly eligible for Medicare or eligible for a Special Election Period (such as losing creditable coverage from a former employer). Make sure you’re covered by one of the UnitedHealth Rx plans. Both plans provide the features that matter most to you:
These Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (PDPs) are insured by United HealthCare Insurance Company or United HealthCare Insurance Company of New York for New York residents (together called "UnitedHealthcare"). UnitedHealthcare contracts with the Federal government as a PDP sponsor. |  |
