Is the Medicare donut hole a one time thing or do I reach it annually?!
Question: http://www.todaysmedicare.com
the Medicare doughnut hole is a once annual event. It starts when the total cost of all your medications (the combined amount you AND the insurance pays) reaches $2510 in 2008 and ends when YOUR true out of pocket costs reach $4050. At the beginning of the next benefit year you start over. Use the link above for more detailed information.
