Yes, VA drug coverage is generally considered creditable for Medicare Part D, meaning you typically won't face a late enrollment penalty if you later decide to add Part D. However, you should verify your specific VA coverage status and confirm it meets the creditable standard.
Coinsurance is your share of a medical cost expressed as a percentage, while a copay is a fixed dollar amount. Both are types of cost-sharing in Medicare, but they work differently depending on the service.
The Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period runs January 1 through March 31 each year. During this time, people already enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan can switch to a different Medicare Advantage plan or return to Original Medicare.
Many Medicare Advantage plans include drug coverage (called Part D), but not all of them do. You need to check each specific plan before enrolling.
People most commonly forget to check whether their current doctors accept the plan they're enrolling in, and whether their prescriptions are covered at a reasonable cost under that plan's drug formulary.
