Each state has their own plans. You should have received by now your Medicare & You 2011 booklet which list the plans available in your state/county.

Open enrollment ends 12/31 so you really do not have much time left. Check with CVS, Walgreens, AARP, etc. for free workshops. They will help you pick out the ins plans that best fits you & fill out the paperwork for you. All you have to do is sit back & let them do all the work for you.
Check w/your local social service department to see if your state/county has FREE health plans that will pay the premiums as well as pick up the slack that the Medicare drug plans does not pay.

You can call Medicare: 1-800-633-4227 and/or visit their website & check out to see exactly what your state is offering.

The medicare website has a good site to evaluate plans. Depends on what your needs are you can pick an HMO or stay with traditional medicare. With traditional medicare you pay 20% co-pay unless you qualify for Medicaid whcih most people toatally reliant on SSDI qualify for then you are 100% covered, Traditional coverage allows you to pick your own doctors, no referrals, It's what I have. Kaiser is the highest rated HMO plan if your state has them, I would recommend that for HMO,
