Best Answer

Prescription coverage is available for anyone that is currently covered by Medicare. In order to get prescription coverage, one must enroll in one of two plans. Once a decision is made between the Medicare Prescription Drug Plan and the Medicare Advantage Plan there are numerous ways to enroll. One way is through the designated plan's website, another is to fill out a paper enrollment form.
