Answer: Since Ms. Bushman has 2 homes in two different states, she will need to find a plan that will have a network in both of the states she owns a home. Medicare Part C prescription plan uses a network that maintains scripts in their own network and since it is private insurance, they maintain networks in numerous states. She can go to Medicare's official website for more details. She can also call her insurance plan and speak to a representative who will be able to guide her to plans that will help her. Many older people do move to another home/state during certain parts of the year. These people are called "Snowbirds."
