Despite recent U.S. media spin declaring anecdotal success of the Medicare
Prescription drug program, Canadian online pharmacies are noticing a very different trend.
Beneficiaries are returning to Canada in increasing numbers out of dissatisfaction, after
tasting the bitter fruit of Medicare D.
Toronto, Canada, April 18, 2006 -- The six month enrollment period for the new Medicare Part D
prescription drug program is nearly over and still the majority of eligible seniors have not
signed-up voluntarily. However, of those that have begun to experience the complex and convoluted
program, many are questioning whether it delivers enough savings to offset the hassle and confusion.
Consequently, American seniors are again turning to online Canadian pharmacies like ADV-Care
(www.PharmacyOnTheNet.com or www.ADV-Care.com) to provide maximum savings on their medications
.

"We are witnessing an interesting rebound effect among many seniors that have test-driven the
Medicare program. The early promises have not materialized and patients are re-discovering that
Canada still offers the better deal, says Ramy Attalla, Director of Communications at ADV-Care
Pharmacy.
The majority of the problems being reported by seniors relate to certain drugs not being covered by
Medicare plans, having to switch therapies to accommodate formularies and the complete absence of
coverage as patients fall into the donut hole. Ironically however, the media seems to be willingly
duped by Republican spin that the program is widely successful. Unfortunately, the health of millions
of seniors has become a political pawn in the game of pre-midterm spin doctoring.
"The Medicare moment of truth is drawing near. The hype is already fading as more and more
seniors experience the pain of the donut hole and incomplete coverage -- a problem that will only
get worse between now and the end of the year," adds Attalla.
The professional staff at ADV-Care Pharmacy (
www.PharmacyOnTheNet.com or www.ADV-Care.com)
are trained to advise U.S. patients on how to best supplement the limitations of their Medicare plan.
Often a combined solution of Canada + Medicare is the best choice if future catastrophic coverage is
a concern. Although Canadian drugs are generally more affordable than most Medicare plans, enrollment
does not preclude seniors from receiving the best from both worlds. A new trend reveals many
beneficiaries still ordering from Canada when a drug is not covered and when they fall into the
donut hole.
"The bottom line is that you should consider a Canadian pharmacy whenever you have to pay full
price out-of-pocket. Why pay full-price locally when you can pay half-price and have your meds
delivered right to your doorstep."
ADV-Care Pharmacy ( www.adv-care.com
or www.PharmacyOnTheNet.com) is
licensed by the Ontario College of Pharmacists, and has been safely dispensing medications to
Canadian & U.S. residents for 6 years. All Canadian medications are Health Canada approved
