Also known as Prescription Drug Plans, Medicare Part D helps cover the cost of your prescription drugs.

Typically, you can only enroll in or make changes to a Prescription Drug Plan plan during the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP). The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period is every year, starting on October 15th, and ending December 7th. Any changes made during the Annual Enrollment Period will go into effect January 1st of the following year.

  • Turning 65 and enrolled in Medicare Part B

  • Over 65 but Medicare Part B is just becoming effective.

  • Special Election Periods such as moving, loosing an employer health plan, or your plan no longer being available.
