Medicare Part D Medicare Part D is the federal government's prescription drug program that covers both brand-name and generic prescription drugs at participating pharmacies in your area or by mail order. Medicare Part D prescription plans are purchased through private companies. An individual is able to purchase a plan by being enrolled in either Medicare A or B. Companies may offer plans which provide drug coverage for Medicare Elligble prescriptions but may only offer limited access to certain drugs through their formulary. At its basic level, a drug formulary is a list of Brand Name or Generic drugs that a company may cover. These formularies can change from year to year and it can prove very important to review your needs each year to ensure your cost are the lowest possible. Please feel free to call our office for any questions or help. 800-954-3773 or 715-827-0218
