I'm no Medicare expert, but I do know that different insurance companies provide the Medicare plans in each different area. Here is some information that might be helpful:

You can find Pennsylvania plans, who offers them, and how much they cost
Medicare Plans by State on medicare.gov:
www.medicare.gov/.../SelectState.asp%7C7%7CWinXP&language=English&defaultstatus=0&ViewType=Public&PDPYear=2008&MAPDYear=2008&MPDPF%5FMPPF%5FIntegrate=N

The Apprise Program
1-800-783-7067
PA state program available to assist consumers who have questions about their health insurance, medical bills, and prescription coverage. Free and confidential.

State and Federal legislative representives should be able to help a new resident moving to their legislative district.  They are usually willing to research the procedures to follow for a smooth transition.  A call to the Social Security Administration should also provide the info you need.
