The #InflationReductionAct is helping millions with Medicare save on their prescription drugs. Certain recommended vaccinations are covered at no cost by Medicare Part D, including for shingles, RSV, tetanus-diphtheria-whooping-cough, and more!

#DYK thanks to #InflationReductionAct, starting in 2025, people with Medicare will pay no more than $2,000 out-of-pocket each year for their prescriptions? Once they reach that amount, their medications will be free of charge for the rest of the year!
