Who can join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan?
Everyone with the Original Medicare Plan, a Medicare Private Fee-for-Service (PFFS) Plans that doesn't offer prescription drug coverage, a Medicare Cost Plan, or a Medicare Medical Savings Account can join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (Part D) in their area. To get Medicare drug coverage, you must join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan if you are in the Original Medicare Plan. Or, you must join a Medicare Advantage Plan that includes drug coverage.
If you have prescription drug coverage from a former or current employer or union, contact your benefits administrator before you make any changes to your drug coverage. If you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or Medicare Advantage Plan, you and your family may lose your employer or union coverage.
