All‌ ‌You‌ ‌Need‌ ‌to‌ ‌Know‌ ‌About‌ ‌Prescription‌ ‌Drug‌ ‌Insurance‌ ‌Plans‌ ‌in‌ ‌2020‌ ‌

​A‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌plan‌ ‌is‌ ‌optional‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌for‌ ‌anyone‌ ‌with‌ ‌Medicare‌ ‌Insurance.‌ ‌You‌ ‌can‌ ‌get‌ ‌a‌ ‌Medicare‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌plan‌ ‌only‌ ‌when‌ ‌you‌ ‌have‌ ‌an‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌premium‌ ‌that‌ ‌covers‌ ‌it.‌ ‌You‌ ‌should‌ ‌note‌ ‌the‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌for‌ ‌each‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌premium.‌
How‌ ‌to‌ ‌Join‌ ‌A‌ ‌Prescription‌ ‌Drug‌ ‌Plan‌ ‌
You‌ ‌can‌ ‌get‌ ‌a‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌plan‌ ‌during‌ ‌the‌ ‌pandemic‌ ‌to‌ ‌help‌ ‌with‌ ‌some‌ ‌medical‌ ‌bills‌ ‌with‌ ‌these‌ ‌steps:‌ ‌
  1. Choose‌ ‌a‌ ‌medicare‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌plan‌ ‌and‌ ‌a‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌preference.‌ ‌
  2. Get‌ ‌enrolled‌ ‌for‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌and‌ ‌fill‌ ‌out‌ ‌the‌ ‌form.‌ ‌
  3. Call‌ ‌the‌ ‌plan‌ ‌and‌ ‌call‌ ‌Medicare.gov‌ ‌for‌ ‌recording‌ ‌and‌ ‌to‌ ‌begin‌ ‌your‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage.‌ ‌

Two‌ ‌Types‌ ‌of‌ ‌Prescription‌ ‌Drug‌ ‌Plans‌ ‌
Not‌ ‌all‌ ‌health‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌companies‌ ‌cover‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drugs,‌ ‌and‌ ‌you‌ ‌may‌ ‌need‌ ‌them‌ ‌in‌ ‌case‌ ‌you‌ ‌take‌ ‌ill.‌ ‌There‌ ‌are‌ ‌two‌ ‌types‌ ‌of‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌plans‌ ‌for‌ ‌Medicare‌ ‌insurance,‌ ‌and‌ ‌either‌ ‌could‌ ‌help‌ ‌your‌ ‌family‌ ‌out‌ ‌during‌ ‌the‌ ‌pandemic.‌ ‌ ‌

Medicare‌ ‌Advantage‌ ‌Plan‌ ‌
The‌ ‌advantage‌ ‌plan‌ ‌is‌ ‌like‌ ‌a‌ ‌PPO‌ ‌or‌ ‌an‌ ‌HMO‌ ‌that‌ ‌provides‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage.‌ ‌They‌ ‌offer‌ ‌you‌ ‌hospital‌ ‌and‌ ‌medical‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌along‌ ‌with‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage.‌ ‌A‌ ‌medicare‌ ‌advantage‌ ‌plan‌ ‌requires‌ ‌both‌ ‌hospital‌ ‌and‌ ‌medical‌ ‌insurance.‌ ‌When‌ ‌paired‌ ‌with‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌plans,‌ ‌some‌ ‌people‌ ‌call‌ ‌them‌ ‌MA-PDs.‌ ‌

Medicare‌ ‌Prescription‌ ‌Drug‌ ‌Plan‌ ‌(PDP)‌ ‌
PDPs‌ ‌are‌ ‌a‌ ‌basic‌ ‌plan‌ ‌since‌ ‌they‌ ‌add‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌to‌ ‌an‌ ‌existing‌ ‌Medicare‌ ‌plan.‌ ‌Some‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌premiums‌ ‌they‌ ‌boost‌ ‌are:‌ ‌ ‌
  1. Medicare‌ ‌Savings‌ ‌Account‌ ‌plans‌ ‌
  2. Medicare‌ ‌Cost‌ ‌Plan‌ ‌
  3. Medicare‌ ‌Private‌ ‌Fee-for-Service‌ ‌

Penalty‌ ‌For‌ ‌Late‌ ‌Enrollment‌ ‌ ‌
If‌ ‌are‌ ‌eligible‌ ‌for‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌coverage‌ ‌and‌ ‌have‌ ‌none‌ ‌of‌ ‌these‌ ‌three:‌ ‌
  • Medicare‌ ‌Advantage‌ ‌plan‌ ‌
  • A‌ ‌creditable‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌plan,‌ ‌or‌ ‌
  • A‌ ‌Medicare‌ ‌prescription‌ ‌drug‌ ‌plan

For‌ ‌63‌ ‌days,‌ ‌it‌ ‌will‌ ‌attract‌ ‌a‌ ‌late‌ ‌enrollment‌ ‌penalty.‌ ‌A‌ ‌problem‌ ‌health‌ ‌insurance‌ ‌companies‌ ‌have‌ ‌with‌ ‌some‌ ‌policyholders‌ ‌is‌ ‌that‌ ‌they‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌pay‌ ‌their‌ ‌premium‌ ‌only‌ ‌when‌ ‌they‌ ‌need‌ ‌coverage.‌ ‌If‌ ‌you‌ ‌decide‌ ‌to‌ ‌cancel‌ ‌your‌ ‌plan‌ ‌after‌ ‌the‌ ‌pandemic‌ ‌for‌ ‌any‌ ‌reason‌ ‌apart‌ ‌from‌ ‌a‌ ‌good‌ ‌cause,‌ ‌you‌ ‌will‌ ‌have‌ ‌to‌ ‌pay‌ ‌before‌ ‌you‌ ‌can‌ ‌re-enroll.‌ ‌
