Assemblyman

“Getting the prescriptions you need should not be a hassle, and I’ll continue working to make sure everyone has easy access to the medications they need.”

– Assemblyman Phil Ramos

Ramos wants to let you know about the EPIC program

EPIC – prescription coverage for seniors – is designed to lower prescription drug costs for seniors with fixed incomes.

  • You are eligible for EPIC if you are a New York State resident age 65 or older with an income of $35,000 or less if single, or $50,000 or less if married.

  • Ramos is making sure that seniors can get the medication they need without unnecessary obstacles by rejecting the proposal to make EPIC drugs subject to prior authorization

  • For more information or to enroll in the program, call the EPIC Hotline at 1-800-332-3742.

Ramos is working to make prescription drugs more affordable

  • Ramos fought to create the new prescription drug discount card for individuals 50 to 64 years old.

  • Ramos sponsored legislation to make prescription drugs more accessible and affordable (A.3848).
