As of 2006, anyone enrolled in Medicare has the option to sign up for prescription drug coverage. If you are over 65 years of age, you should be sure that you know whether or not the Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit is right for you. Whether or not it makes sense for you to enroll in the benefit depends upon a few things, including:

Your current level of prescription drug coverage

Your current prescription costs

Anticipated future prescription costs

Your level of income
