Statement by Mike Leavitt Secretary of Health and Human Services Regarding Mother's Day

Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 8th, and there is no better gift to give our mothers than the gift of good health. This Mother’s Day card http://www.medicare.gov/publications/pubs/pdf/womenshealthbrochure.pdf is a gift that will keep on giving long after Mother’s Day with helpful information about important new Medicare benefits, including preventive services and prescription drug coverage. It also has a health journal to help keep track of your mother’s medical information. I hope you consider printing out this card for your mother, and I send best wishes to all moms on this special day.
