Ask Your Senators to Protect Medicare Access to Mental Health Medications

Every voice is critical.

Today, Medicare Part D and Medicare Advantage plans must include "all or substantially all" of the medications in six protected classes, which include antidepressants and antipsychotics.

A proposed new policy would allow plans to exclude certain drugs and would allow plans to impose prior authorization requirements even on patients who are on a stable medication regimen. 

A bipartisan letter is moving through the Senate asking the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to maintain the six protected classes policy in Medicare Part D.

Please contact Pennsylvania Senators Bob Casey and Pat Toomey TODAY and ask them to sign the letter to maintain the six protected classes of medication.
