Medicare prescription drug plans (Part D)

Medicare prescription drug plans (Part D) Help with prescription drug costs Works differently from Original Medicare Part A and Part B. You can only get Medicare Part D through a private insurance company You must enroll in a Part D plan. Coverage is not automatic If you do not sign up for a Part D plan when you become eligible, you may have to pay a late-enrollment penalty You do need to continue to pay your Part B premium 2

Prescription drug coverage stages $4,750 $2,930 In the coverage gap you pay only a percentage of the drug cost. However, 100% of the drug cost is applied toward your out-of-pocket costs. 3

A closer look at Medicare Advantage Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs): Use a network of doctors, hospitals and other health care professionals You must get routine care from one of our many plan providers Typically do not provide coverage outside the contracted service area except for emergencies Urgent care and renal dialysis are available out of network 8

A closer look at Medicare Advantage Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs): You can go out of network for any covered services, generally at a higher cost Allow you to see a specialist without a referral 9

Step 2: Consider your choices

Do you prefer complete freedom in selecting the doctors you see? Do you travel frequently and/or internationally? What is more important, lower monthly premiums or predictable out-of-pocket costs? Give us a call we can assist you every step of the way. Convenient hours of operation: 8 a.m. 8 p.m. local time, 7 days a week Toll-free dedicated line: 1-877-755-5341, TTY 711 11
