People who are on Medicaid will be picked up automatically by Part D Medicare on Jan. 1, 2006. You do have a choice of plan, but if you do not choose, then a plan will be chosen for you. And it may not be the one that you would want.

You don't want to wait if you are paying out of pocket each month.

Vets do not need this plan because they have a plan that is as good or better.
