Most people can first enroll in Medicare during a seven-month Initial Enrollment Period that begins three months before the month they turn 65 and ends three months after their birthday month. If you’re still working and have employer coverage, different enrollment rules may apply. Starting the conversation a few months before turning 65 gives you time to understand your options and avoid last-minute decisions.
Medicare Advantage (Part C) is an alternative way to receive your Medicare benefits through a private insurance company. Plans often use provider networks and may include prescription drug coverage and additional benefits such as dental, vision, or hearing. Medicare Supplement (Medigap) works alongside Original Medicare and helps pay certain out-of-pocket costs. Medigap plans generally do not include prescription drug coverage, so a separate Part D plan may be needed. The right approach depends on your healthcare needs, doctors, prescriptions, budget, and preferences.
Medicare drug plans can change from year to year, including their formularies, pharmacy networks, premiums, deductibles, and what you pay for medications. Your prescriptions may also change. Reviewing your coverage each year can help you determine whether your current plan still fits your medications, preferred pharmacy, and budget for the coming year.
