Medicare Open Enrollment is right around the corner, and for Alabama residents, it’s a crucial time to review your health coverage and make informed decisions for the year ahead. The enrollment period begins October 15 and ends December 7, 2025. During this window, Medicare beneficiaries should review their current supplemental plans (such as Medicare Advantage or Part D drug coverage) and determine if that coverage still fits their needs.
AARP Alabama is proud to announce the appointment of Courtney Tarver as our new State President, a volunteer leadership role that helps guide AARP’s work across the state to empower people 50 and older to live their best lives.

It’s well known that prescription drug prices are skyrocketing in America. Price increases for brand name drugs have far exceeded the rate of inflation since at least 2006, according to AARP’s Rx Price Watch report. And the average annual cost for just one brand name drug taken on a chronic basis was about $6,800 in 2017, almost $1,000 more than in 2015. However, it’s not just patients paying for greedy Big Pharma practices that help keep drug prices high— it’s also taxpayers.
AARP's 'Stop Rx Greed' is a nationwide campaign aimed at lowering prescription drug prices. The goal of the sustained campaign is to help drive down drug prices for Alabamians and all Americans by advocating for a variety of legislative, executive, and regulatory actions at both the federal and state level.
