Rite Aid's Medicare Advisor tool helps seniors select best option

CAMP HILL, Pa. - Rite Aid pharmacies last week made available a number of free resources to  senior customers in an effort to help them select the right prescription drug plan or update their existing coverage during the annual Medicare Part D enrollment period.



"Choosing the best prescription drug plan to fit a customer's personalized needs is an important healthcare decision and can be overwhelming," stated Jocelyn Konrad, EVP pharmacy for Rite Aid. "Rite Aid pharmacists stand ready to answer questions and encourage patients to take advantage of the free resources we offer, including Medicare Advisor, as they work towards selecting the drug plan that best fits their prescription needs."



With Rite Aid's Medicare Advisor, customers can compare the estimated annual costs of various plans, including monthly premiums, brand and generic co-pays and drugs covered. Customers can then discuss their Medicare Advisor report with their Rite Aid pharmacists, who are available to answer questions they may have.



Customers can use Rite Aid's dedicated Medicare Advisor comparison tool to request the three lowest-cost prescription drug plans based on current prescriptions filled at Rite Aid. Rite Aid's Medicare Advisor is available at any Rite Aid pharmacy and can also be accessed online at www.riteaid.com/medicareadvisor.
