Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage Information
The new Medicare prescription drug coverage began on January 1, 2006,
but you can enroll until the spring of 2006. Everyone with Medicare can
get this coverage that in most cases will lower your prescription drug
costs and help protect against higher costs in the future. Medicare
Prescription Drug Coverage is insurance. You choose the drug plan and
pay a monthly premium.
If you have limited income and resources, you
may get extra help to cover prescription drugs for
little or no cost. The amount of the monthly
premium is not affected by your health status or
how many prescriptions you need. You will also
pay a share of the cost of your prescriptions.
The decision to get Medicare prescription drug
coverage depends on how you pay for your drugs
now and how you get your Medicare coverage.

How Much Will the Plans Cost?

When you get Medicare prescription drug coverage, you pay part of the
costs, and Medicare pays part of the costs. You pay a premium each
month to join the drug plan (generally around $37 in 2006 for standard
coverage). If you have Medicare Part B, you also pay your monthly Part B
premium. If you belong to a Medicare Advantage Plan or a Medicare Cost
Plan, the monthly premium you pay to the plan may increase if you add
prescription drug coverage.
Your costs will vary depending on which plan you choose. Your plan must,
at a minimum, provide you with a standard level of coverage. Some plans
offer more coverage or lower premiums.
