This plan includes a Part B giveback, which lowers what you pay for your Medicare Part B premium by up to $50 a month. Depending on how you pay Part B, the reduction may appear in your Social Security payment or on your Part B bill. That is up to $600 a year. Processing can take time; confirm the amount and timing with the plan.
This plan does not include Part D drug coverage
Before enrolling, confirm how your prescriptions will be covered. Whether you can add a standalone Part D plan depends on the Medicare Advantage plan type; pairing one with most MA HMO or PPO plans can disenroll you from Medicare Advantage. A gap in creditable drug coverage may lead to a Part D late enrollment penalty later.

Part D late enrollment penalty

If you go 63 days or more in a row after your Part D initial enrollment period without Part D or other creditable prescription drug coverage, you may owe a penalty if you join Part D later. The penalty is 1% of the national base beneficiary premium ($38.99 in 2026) for each full uncovered month. It is added to your monthly Part D premium for as long as you have Part D, and the base premium can change each year.

Who this type of plan may fit

MA-Only plans are generally considered by people who already have creditable prescription drug coverage, such as coverage from the VA, TRICARE, or a current or former employer or union. Your coverage provider—not this page—must tell you whether your current drug coverage is creditable.

Before you enroll
  • Find your current plan's annual Notice of Creditable Coverage or ask its benefits administrator.
  • Confirm in this plan's official documents whether adding a standalone drug plan is allowed.
  • Do not drop existing drug coverage until you understand how the change affects both coverages.
