Oregon DUers currently on Medicare...? Please

We re-located to Oregon, three days ago ..Coos Bay area, after selling our house in San Antonio.

Bought a Motor home to live in .

Using the RV park as a physical address for Medicare. Plan to stay here long term.

Haven't yet informed Medicare of our re-location but did contact Humana and was told they have no coverage in Oregon, for Medicare Part D. We could however, purchase a separate supplemental policy for $150/mo.

Apparently no coverage doesn't mean no coverage.
?

Don't understand this and thought maybe I could get answers from Oregon DUers currently on Medicare.

Not sure what our options are at this point and don't want to call Medicare without first understanding what 'no coverage in Oregon' means.


Thanks in advance for any/all help.
