Prescription Drug Plans Part D

Part D helps cover prescription drugs and many recommended shots and vaccines.

Medicare Part D helps pay for the prescription drugs you need. Like Medicare Advantage, Part D is offered by private insurers that are approved by Medicare. Part D helps cover prescription drugs and many recommended shots and vaccines.1

There are two ways to get prescription drug coverage: You can enroll in a Part D plan in addition to your Original Medicare and/or Medigap plan, or you can enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan that includes drug coverage.

Why Enroll?

If you don’t spend a lot on medications right now, you may be tempted to skip Part D. It’s optional, after all. But there are reasons to consider signing up. Let’s say you don’t get Part D when you’re first eligible, and you don’t have another source of drug coverage. If you decide to sign up for coverage later, you may face a late enrollment penalty that you’ll have to pay as long as you have Medicare drug coverage. 

Another reason to consider enrolling? Part D helps shield you from rising prescription drug costs, which can jump even higher depending on your health.

Additional cost controls are being introduced for prescription drugs, including lower prescription drug prices in Medicare through price negotiation with manufacturers, and a $2000 yearly cap beginning in 2025.2
