Millions rely on Medicare Part D for access to essential medications. CMS’s proposed GUARD model risks higher costs and restricted access to protected class drugs. Join the action alert and urge Congress to safeguard Part D: https://t.co/00jmAmqCLc

The GUARD model may sound technical, but the consequences are real for Medicare Part D patients. International pricing could raise costs and limit access to protected class medications. Tell your elected officials to protect Part D access: https://t.co/00jmAmqCLc

Patients, caregivers, and providers are raising alarms about CMS’s proposed GUARD model. If enacted, it could increase out-of-pocket costs and restrict access to protected class Part D drugs. Take action and contact Congress today: https://t.co/00jmAmqCLc

🧬 One kidney donor can save dozens of lives. Through living kidney exchange, unmatched pairs “swap” kidneys — turning a single gift into a chain of hope. Over 90,000 people are waiting. Sometimes, the best way to save someone you love… is to save someone else first. ❤️

The six protected classes remain Medicare’s strongest patient safeguard. We must protect them in 2026 and beyond. #MedicarePartD #PatientAccess

Denials cost more in the long run: ER visits, dialysis, lost productivity. Prevention is cheaper than disruption. #Medicare #AccessMatters

Preventable hospitalizations cost Medicare billions each year, often caused by access barriers. #Medicare #PatientAccess

Ira Copperman and Glenda Daggert explain the reality:

Caregivers know what works best, yet insurance hurdles often ignore their input. Policymakers must strengthen, protections like the six protected classes to support caregivers and their loved ones.

Family caregivers spend an average of 24 hours/week managing care, including meds. Policy must support them. #FamilyCaregiversMonth #Medicare
