Drug coverage
Prescription drug plans cover most of the drugs eligible for coverage under Medicare Part D.
These plans come with a formulary, or a list of covered prescription drugs, which are grouped into tiers. Some drugs may be listed in more than one tier if they're available in both generic and brand-name forms.
Medicare Part D plans do not cover certain drugs that are excluded by law, such as over-the-counter medications and prescription vitamins.
Help with paying your costs
Some members may qualify for the Part D Extra Help Program and Low-Income Subsidy.
If you get Extra Help from Medicare to help pay for your Medicare prescription drug plan costs, your monthly plan premium will be lower than what it would be if you did not get Extra Help from Medicare. The amount of Extra Help you get will determine your total monthly plan premium as a member of our plan.
