Which individual is most likely to qualify for enrollment in a Part D Plan?

Enrollment in a Part D Plan is specifically designed for individuals who are eligible for Medicare, which generally includes U.S. citizens and some legal residents. The correct answer highlights an individual who has been granted asylum and has established work history in the U.S. This is crucial because individuals who have legal status in the country, such as those with asylum, are eligible for Medicare, including Part D coverage for prescription drugs once they meet certain criteria.

The other choices describe individuals who would not be eligible for a Part D Plan due to their status. A retired teacher with no work history may still qualify for Medicare based on age (if they are 65 or older), but without the context of their employment history affecting Medicare eligibility, the direct qualification for Part D is unclear. The stay-at-home parent without U.S. residency would likely not have access to Medicare coverage, thus ineligible for Part D. Similarly, undocumented immigrants do not qualify for Medicare and, thus, cannot enroll in a Part D Plan.

This distinction emphasizes the importance of legal residency and prior work contribution to Medicare when determining eligibility for Part D enrollment.
