4. COVERAGE FOR VACCINES AND INSULIN IS CONTINUING

It’s important to note: Vaccines will continue to be covered, and this is especially important when it comes to the shingles vaccine, a two-part regimen, something 3.6 million Medicare beneficiaries received in 2020. “It’s really pricey and costs almost $200 per administration, so the fact that it’s covered under Medicare Part D is very helpful,” Parker says. In addition, insulin costs will be capped at $35 per month in the coming year.
