As you approach 65 or get ready to retire, choose a Medicare Advantage plan made with you in mind - access to doctors you trust, pharmacy coverage, perks you deserve and customer service reps always ready to help. You have a seven-month initial enrollment period, starting three months before the month you turn 65 and ending three months after the month you turn 65.

If you prefer to get your drugs at a retail pharmacy, you can also visit any in-network pharmacy and get a 90-day supply of your drugs. Medicare Advantage members without Part D coverage can also get help paying for their prescription drugs by showing their ID card at the pharmacy. See how much you'll pay each month and how much you could save by switching to a pharmacy with lower prescription costs or by taking a lower-cost drug. You can check costs at different pharmacies and see the differences in costs between retail (pickup) or mail order (delivery of a 90-day supply).
