If a patient is enrolled in Medicare Advantage (MA) plan, will he or she have drug coverage?
That will depend on whether they enroll in an MA plan or an MA-PD plan. Just as a beneficiary in Medicare fee-for-service might elect not to enroll in a PDP, a beneficiary may opt to enroll in an MA plan rather than an MA-PD plan. Patients will have variations in prescription coverage based on the plan in which they enroll.
