There are new Medicare changes starting in January 2025 that will benefit cancer patients.   LLS Vice President of Federal Affairs, Brian Connell, joins us again on The Bloodline to inform us about these new changes and how they will impact Medicare patients.      

In this episode, you will learn about the key changes for Part D, the prescription drug plan for Medicare, as well as the drug plan for Medicare Advantage.
