NASUA is a lead partner with the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging in the Administration on Aging-Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (AoA-CMS) funded Aging Network Medicare Rx Enrollment Assistance Campaign. The campaign's goal is to support the national aging network in providing outreach, education, and assistance to Medicare beneficiaries on the new Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit and subsidy for low income Medicare beneficiaries.

The Medicare Rx Education, Outreach, and Assistance campaign is carried out in close collaboration with an alliance of partners including:

  • National Council on the Aging (co-lead partner)
  • National Aging Pacific Center on Aging
  • National Alliance for Hispanic Health
  • National Council of Independent Living
  • National Hispanic Council on Aging
  • National Caucus and Center for Black Aged, Inc.
  • Associacion Nacional Pro Personas Mayores
  • Meals On Wheels Association of America
  • National Association of Nutrition and Service Providers
  • National Adult Day Services Association

The Aging Network Medicare Rx Community Based Enrollment Campaign is part of wider efforts to help older Americans, individuals with disabilities, and their families make informed choices about their Medicare benefits.
