Medicare D patients won't lose coverage for a specific drug even if their plan's formulary changes

Drug plans can change formularies anytime with a 60-day notice. But most patients are locked into a plan for the rest of the year.
Now patients can keep the same coverage and copay for drugs they are currently taking...even if the formulary changes.
