Dow Jones Description

Passport Advantage is a Medicare plan for Passport Health Plan members with Medicare. If you are one of these members, this Medicare plan is for you. We created this plan to make sure you will not lose the prescription drug coverage you have under Passport Health Plan. Passport Advantage offers you: - The same prescription drugs you are used to getting. - The same doctors you have been seeing under Medicare. - The same pharmacies you have been going to. - Special programs to help you with your care. - No monthly plan premium - you do not have to pay to be on the plan each month. If you want to make sure you keep the same benefits you have now, it is important that you stay with Passport Advantage. If you sign up for any other plan, you might lose the benefits you are used to getting. And you may not be able to go to the same doctors and pharmacies you have come to know. That is why it is so important for you to stay with our plan. We know you, and we are here to take care of you.
