Inadequate Prescription-Drug Coverage for Medicare Enrollees — A Call to Action (Sounding Board, N Engl J Med 1999:340;722 - 728) . On page 722, the first sentence in the third paragraph of the right-hand column should have read, “Among Medicare enrollees who have incomes below $10,000, the 64 percent with no coverage for outpatient drug costs¹⁷ tend to be sicker and poorer than their counterparts with supplemental insurance,” not “Among Medicare enrollees, the 64 percent with no coverage for outpatient drugs costs,” as printed.
