Hello All, 

 

I am in the process of finding a Medicare Part D that will cover most of the prescription drugs at a reasonable cost for Colon Cancer.  Anyone who can chime in on this? 

 

It is sooooooo confusing!

  Have you tried the Medicare

  Have you tried the Medicare Plan Finder?  https://www.medicare.gov/find-a-plan/questions/home.aspx

  Are you receiving oral chemo or infusions?

  My husband was on oral Xeloda and Erbitx infusion, both were covered under his Part B plan, we pad a small co payment for the Xeloda and no copayment at all for the infusions
