Kline Hosting Final Prescription Drug Benefit Session

Kline Hosting Final Prescription Drug Benefit Session

Deadline for Medicare sign-up period is May 15

Congressman John Kline (R-MN) will be hosting one more Medicare prescription drug information and assistance session free for constituents in Minnesota's 2nd Congressional district.

"There are a lot of choices and the plans can be confusing to some," Kline said. "I think it is important to help more senior citizens by providing them with the information they need to make the best choices for themselves."

Congressman Kline has already hosted five Medicare information sessions. At those sessions, volunteers from the Senior Linkage Line work one-on-one with senior citizens in the 2nd district to answer their questions and help them narrow down their choices or select a plan that meets their needs.

"Medicare's full prescription drug benefit is helping millions of Americans save money on the medicines they need," Kline said. "I've been encouraged by the hundreds of senior citizens who participated in our first four information sessions to get the facts for themselves."
