Medicare Part D is the prescription drug plan available to individuals covered by Medicare.
Medicare Advantage plans are offered by private insurance carriers. Plans differ significantly in availability by zip code.
In evaluating a drug plan you should use the Medicare drug formulary plan finder. Look for plans that cover most if not all of your medications under their formulary.
You can enroll direct with the drug plan carrier, through an agent or through Medicare.
