Prescription Drug Plans
Prescription Drug Plan is a critical step in ensuring you have access to the medications you need at a cost you can afford. Medicare Part D, which covers prescription drugs, is available as a standalone plan or as part of a Medicare Advantage Plan (Part C) that includes drug coverage. Enrollment periods are limited, with the Initial Enrollment Period beginning when you first become eligible for Medicare. There’s also an Annual Enrollment Period each year from October 15 to December 7, during which you can join, switch, or drop a plan. Making the right choice during these windows can help you avoid late enrollment penalties and ensure continuous coverage for your medications.
Take Control of Prescription Costs—Start Your Prescription Drug Plans
Choosing the right Prescription Drug Plan requires careful consideration of your current prescriptions, preferred pharmacies, and monthly budget. Plans vary in cost, drug formulary, and network coverage, so it's important to review your options annually—even if you're happy with your current plan. As a licensed Medicare health insurance agent, I can guide you through the enrollment process, helping you compare plans and make informed decisions based on your unique healthcare needs. Personalized support can make all the difference in ensuring you have the coverage you need—when you need it most.
