Internet has vast Medicare D info

Prescription Drug Plan or "PDP," better known to many as Medicare Part D, was created under the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (2003 Medicare Act) to help cover the costs of prescription drugs. Prescription drug coverage is offered only by private companies contracted with Medicare through stand-alone plans and through HMOs, PPOs, and PFFSs. Those who have Original Medicare or Medicare Advantage are eligible to enroll in Part D, it's a voluntary enrollment program. There is quite a bit of information out there on the Internet about Medicare part D plans for those who will be covered under Medicare as well for those assisting family members.
