What is Medicare Part D?
  • Part D covers some prescription drug costs for people with Medicare Part A and/or B (or Medicare Part C in some cases).
  • Beneficiaries pay premiums and other costs related to Part D plans.
  • If you don’t join a Medicare drug plan when you’re first eligible, and you don’t have other creditable prescription drug coverage (for example, from an employer or union), you may pay a late enrollment penalty if you choose to join later.
