Senior Satisfaction Survey

Since its creation, Medicare Part D has been a wildly successful and popular program. How do we know? We’ve been keeping track.

Each year, we conduct a Senior Satisfaction Survey to gauge plan usability and contentment among beneficiaries. Year in and year out, seniors have agreed that not only are they satisfied with Part D, but they are pleased with the cost of their plan and the coverage it provides.
