Part D Plans are offered by private companies to provide coverage for prescription drug costs. Part D plans are government regulated and subsidized. Medicare Part D is the federal government's prescription drug program that covers both brand-name and generic prescription drugs at participating pharmacies in your area. Part D is optional and offered to everyone with Medicare by insurance companies approved by Medicare.
Even if you don't take prescriptions drugs now, you may consider getting Medicare drug coverage to avoid paying a late enrollment penalty if you join a plan later.
