Medicare Advantage Plans with Prescription Drug Coverage
Most people with a Medicare Advantage Plan get prescription drug coverage through their plans. If you join a Medicare Advantage Plan and it offers this coverage, you must take the drug coverage your plan offers. Some Medicare Advantage Plans don't include prescription drug coverage. Other options for getting drug coverage include joining another Medicare Advantage Plan that offers prescription drug coverage, or returning to the Original Medicare Plan and joining a stand-alone Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (Part D).
If you belong to a Medicare Advantage HMO or PPO, you can only get Medicare prescription drug coverage from your plan (if offered). If you join a stand-alone Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, you will be automatically disenrolled from your Medicare HMO or PPO and returned to the Original Medicare Plan.
