Medicare Prescription Drug Plan: How to Understand It and Enroll

From Sharon O'Brien, former About.com Guide

It’s important to remember that Medicare does not sell drug plan coverage directly. You must purchase a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan from an authorized company.

To find a company in your state that sells Medicare Prescription Drug Plan policies, and is approved by Medicare, see the Medicare Landscape of Local Plans.

For an interactive tool that allows you to narrow your search for a Medicare prescription drug plan based on your personal preferences such as cost, drugs covered and participating pharmacies, see the Medicare Prescription Drug Plan Finder.
