If I am already enrolled in a Part D plan and have been paying my monthly premium to the plan, will I still be switched to the Part D plan that the PACE program picked for me?
Not necessarily. Shortly before the Annual Enrollment Period, you will receive a letter from the program telling you whether they will be assigning you to a different plan. If you receive a letter, the choice of Part D plans is yours. You can either be assigned to the plan the program picks for you or notify the program that you want to stay in your current plan.
