Medicare Part D...eadlineBy Laura Knoy on Friday, May 12, 2006.You could say the “D†now stands for “deadlineâ€â€¦..as the last day to sign up for this federal drug plan is Monday. But New Hampshire ranks last among New England states in Part D registration….thousands are still un-enrolled, due to a wide array of reasons – one of them being confusion as the deadline approaches. We’ll ask those last minute questions about Part D. Laura's guests are Dr. Mark McClellan, Chief Administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Dr. McClellan has been on an 11-month Medicare mobile tour, visiting 360 unique cities across the country educating and signing up seniors for Medicare drug plans. Also Tom Mahar, Regional Director of Medicare Today, an organization that educates seniors on their Medicare drug plan options throughout New England and the Mid-Atlantic States.
