Medicare Part D for 2026

We’re quickly approaching the time of the year when you can change your Medicare Part D (Drug) plans for 2026, October 15th to December 7th. The plan you may already have for 2025 is good until the end of the year.

Part of the problem with the Part D plans is that your current plan can and may already have sent you information on what their plan will be in 2026.

We hear from patients who are concerned that their current plan is going up in price and what should they do?

We will be able to access all the plans available after October 15th, until we can see what all the other plans are offering you should not be concerned about your current plan, and especially do not renew your current plan until you determine it is the best plan for you in 2026.

The long and the short of it is do not do anything about renewing your current plan, you have plenty of time, the deadline is December 7th. If we have provided you with a written comparison of the plans that are in your best interest, we will do it again for 2026.

If you're not sure if we have you on our list for 2026, send an email to PartD2026@lopezislandpharmacy.com and we will see that you get a customized report on plans that could be in your best interest for 2026. We will not start running reports until after October 15th.

If no appointments are showing, we have already filled all the slots for this order. We will have more openings as we receive vaccines, please be patient. Currently we are booking in September and October.

Yes the Covid slots really did fill up in under 10 minutes. Keep in mind there can be cancellations and then a spot would pop back open.

During an early CoVid vax event in 2021, 300 slots filled in 4 minutes. They go quick.

More vaccine is on order and we will open more slots as soon as it arrives.

09/11/2025

We have slots open for Moderna Covid Vaccine. They are between September 18th and 25th. Do not look past Sept 25th. We expect them to fill quickly. If you do not get a slot this time, we have more on order. The manufacturers are shipping partial orders, with more to come.

The recommendation is to have at least 6 months since your last Covid vaccine, and/or 3 months since you had an active case of Covid.

If you have a confirmed slot, remember to fill out the vaccination consent form. It will be in your confirmation email, or you can find it at our website:

Regarding question about Novavax availability on Lopez:
We won't have Novavax initially. They are more expensive than Moderna and we don't know if reimbursement will cover the higher cost yet. We are waiting to hear from our colleagues.

09/04/2025

Thank you Washington State Department of Health! Providers now have a blanket Standing Order for the administration of Covid-19 vaccines for anyone as listed in the order. See first section of Order. We give adult vaccine here, so when it arrives, anyone age 18 and up can get a Covid vaccine. No special requirements.

We have vaccine on order and we are waiting for it to be released. We already know the orders will ship piecemeal. Please watch for arrival updates on FB and Lopez Rocks and refrain from calls to the pharmacy. Sign up will be thru our website as usual.

These are the numbers for the number of Covid tests we have provided, we can only hope that most of the tests turn out to be negative.

08/21/2025

We felt we would have a spike in Covid cases right after the 4th of July. The demand for test kits proves people are still thinking of Covid and testing.

The graph shows the number of Covid Test Kits we have sold from Jan 2025 to Aug 20, 2025. We have 11 days left in August and have 54 sold to date in August, July was the highest this year with 77.

Today it seems the first fistful of patients at 9 a.m. came to get test kits.
