Example if you choose to wait 5 years to enroll in Part D:
At 1 percent per month penalty for 5 years (60 months = 60% penalty). If the Part D average premium is $27.00, add the $16.20 penalty. If you choose a plan which costs $20 add the $16.20 and your plan choice, but your plan now costs $36.20 (81% higher, due to the penalty). This penalty stays with you forever - so there is an incentive to enroll once eligible.
