Answer 1

Medicare Part D plans--and the prescription drugs each plan covers--can be confusing. Yes, you can and should check out the Medicare. gov web site.

If you would like some help in answering this question from real people--and how it will work if you need to change the BCBS Part D plan you have to another one to get the drugs you need--I would recommend that you contact the Area Agency on Aging where you live. You would want to have the listing of all the prescriptions you are taking, the dosages prescribed and also the pharmacy that you prefer to do business with. Professionals at the Area Agency on Aging can provide guidance in helping seniors and their caregivers deal with the peculiarities of the different Medicare Part D plans. You will most likely find the professional staff there friendly and helpful--and they are not selling any particular plan or product. They also know the latest "scoop" on changes that are still happening with Medicare Part D in your state. (Yes, even now more changes are happening within plans!)

If you live in the United States or one of the territories, there is an Area Agency on Aging serving where you live. You can call toll-free 1-800-677-1116 to find how to contact the one serving you.

If you do contact your local Area Agency on Aging and like the help that they give you, let your local county officials and your folks in Congress know. Area Agencies on Aging are funded under the Older Americans Act and they don't have big budgets for advertising. Your contribution to help provide this important information and assistance to your older friends and neighbors would be appreciated--but is not necessary to get the help you are seeking.

Good luck and best wishes!

Answers above are correct, I just wanted to throw this in, make sure that you only sign up for Medicare part D through the company that you have health insurance through (if any). Lets say you have BCBS health insurance and you decide to sign up with Medicare part D through Health net, or Pacificare, whatever, if you do that, you will loose your medical benefits and will have to wait until open enrollment to sign back up..... be careful and read all fine print.
