I called the offices of 7 California state budget leaders and asked them to oppose the dangerous and short-sighted reduction of the asset test to $2,000. In order to be eligible for Medi-Cal healthcare benefits low-income seniors and disabled would have to possess less than $2,000 in assets.

The Post Office Food Drive is the second Saturday in May. Preparing now gives me time to shop for sales and bargains. The need is especially great this year.

My Medicare Part D prescription drug plan's Annual Notice of Changes arrived today. There has been a 228% increase in the Monthly plan premium since 2020. 2024 increase was the largest to date. Next years monthly premiums will probably be even higher. I'm sure everyone is seeing similar increases.

I will be receiving 6 free COVID tests from Test to Treat. If I test positive I will also get a free telehealth visit and medication delivered to my home. If you take a few minutes to fill out the form you can see if you qualify.
