9/10/22: Bill Sweeney with AARP | How does the Inflation Reduction Act impact Medicare? | Aging In The Willamette Valley with John Hughes

Aging in the Willamette Valley

This week our guest is Bill Sweeney, Senior VP of Government Affairs at AARP, who joined us to explain how the Inflation Reduction Act impacts Medicare. Congress has just passed historic legislation to lower the prices of prescription drugs and put money back in the pockets of seniors. The new law requires Medicare to start negotiating the price of certain drugs, caps seniors’ annual out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs in Medicare Part D and limits the cost of insulin to $35 a month in Medicare. Find out when changes take effect. Don’t miss this show!
