Prescription Drug Plan (PDP)
Understanding Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage, Part D
- Medicare drug coverage helps pay for prescription drug costs.
- Each plan’s cost and covered medications may vary.
- If you do not get drug coverage when you first become eligible, you may have to pay a late enrollment penalty. The penalty is in addition to the premium of the Medicare drug or advantage plan you enroll in, and applies for as long as you have Medicare drug coverage.
