		<description><![CDATA[As of Jan. 1, 2013, Medicare does cover benzodiazepines. Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan and their generics are now covered by Part D Medicare for all medical conditions for which they are deemed medically necessary. 

Barbituates have also been added, but only for epilepsy, certain cancers, and certain medical conditions. Check your own Medicare Part D formulary to see which benzodiazepines are covered.]]></description>
