Please consider calling your local Area Agency on Aging--these groups are one of the best kept secrets around for older Americans and their families who are seeking information on Medicare Part D options and other age-related questions. Since Area Agencies on Aging are a national network, there is one where you live--and they aren't selling anything! The staff there will visit with you or guide you to information you need. They are also going to be a good source of information since they talk with scores of older people and their caregivers every day and have helpful insights as to how well certain plans may be working. They also will know about prescription assistance programs that might be available in your state or county. You will most likely find the people there friendly and very helpful.

You can call toll-free 1-800-677-1116 to find how to contact the area agency on aging serving you.

If you do contact your local Area Agency on Aging and like the help that they give you, let your local county officials and your folks in Congress know. Area Agencies on Aging don't have big budgets for advertising and certainly don't have budgets that support campaign contributions!

Best wishes and Good luck!
