How to decide if a Medicare Part D plan is the right choice for you?

Like any insurance coverage decision, the question of whether to join a Medicare Part D plan depends on your particular situation.

There are however, certain simple factors that you can consider in preparation for this question.

For instance:
  • How much do I spend each year on prescription drugs?
  • What does the Medicare Part D plan cost each month?
  • Does the Medicare Part D plan cover your particular prescription drugs?
  • What are the Medicare Part D plan's co-payment and deductibles?
  • Do you qualify financially for any "Extra Help" programs?
  • Are you already eligible for prescription drug coverage by your previous employer, union, or the VA?

Please note, as a rough guideline, it is estimated that if you spend as little as $68.00 per month on prescription drugs (or $810.00 per year), you could save money with a Medicare Part D plan (depending on the plan's monthly premium).
