摘要

To the Editor: Although Medicare Part D has improved access to prescription medications, drug costs remain a problem for many older adults.1 The Medicare low-income subsidy program (Extra Help) and state-sponsored pharmaceutical assistance programs can help seniors mitigate this problem by providing cost-sharing or Part D premium assistance, yet they are underenrolled by as much as 50%,2"3 possibly due to lack of awareness. We assessed a diverse sample of inner-city seniors for rates of awareness of New York State's Elderly Pharmaceutical Insurance Coverage (EPIC), established in 1987, and Extra Help, established in 2006.
