You can enroll in Medicare Part D coverage once you meet both of the above requirements. Your Initial Enrollment Period for Part D is when you're first eligible to sign up for prescription drug benefits, and this period usually coincides with when you're first eligible for Medicare coverage.
You can sign up for free Part A (if youâre eligible) any time during or after your Initial Enrollment Period starts. If you sign up within 6 months of your 65th birthday, your coverage will start the first day of the month you turn 65, or the month before you turn 65 (if your birthday is the first of the month).
