    As a rule no, you can enroll in Part D when you first become eligible, during the Anual Election Period, or if you have a Special qualifying event such as losing your group coverage or the plan pulls out of the area, or you move out of the service area.  If you qualify for Extra Help with your drugs from Medicare or if you are also on Medicaid you can swithch whenever you want.

    You should consider enrolling in a Part D plan when you begin Medicare Part B. If you have coverage under an employer group plan and that plan includes prescription drug coverage, you can delay enrolling in a Part D plan until your group plan ends. Be sure your group Rx plan is considered creditable coverage.
