What is Part D?

Medicare Part D is insurance that helps pay for prescription drugs that are not covered by Medicare Part A or B. It is optional insurance that is purchased through private insurance companies. There are many plan choices with various levels of coverage and premiums depending on your needs.
 
Regardless if you are taking medications or not, you may want to sign up when first eligible to avoid paying a penalty if you sign up later.

To learn more about the standard deductible, coverage limits, co-payments and other elements of Part D plans, view our Medicare Part D standard benefit design.
