Deductible: The amount you must pay each year for your prescriptions before your plan begins to pay its share of your covered drugs. The max in 2023 is $505. Some plans have a $0 Deductible.
Tier Level: Medicare drug plans place drugs into different "tiers" on their formularies. Drugs in each tier have a different cost. A drug in a lower tier will generally cost you less.
Quantity Limit Amount/Days: Certain drugs have a Quantity Limit. That means the plan will only cover the drug up to a designated quantity or amount. If your prescribing doctor feels it is necessary to exceed the set limit, he or she must get prior approval before the higher quantity will be covered.
Prior Authorization: Certain Drugs require you or your doctor to get prior authorization to be covered. Usually just an additional form. If you dont get approval, the plan may not cover the drug.
Does the Deduct Apply: Some drugs do not require that the deductible is met before you receive coverage.
Step Therapy: Means you must first try one drug to treat your medical condition before the plan will cover another drug for the same condition. If you have already tried other drugs or your doctor thinks they are not right for you, you and your doctor can ask the plan to cover this drug.
Cost Preferred: Your Cost for the Drug at the Providers In-Network Preferred Pharmacy. As a Percent of the total drug cost or a flat rate.

Cost Mail: Your Cost for Prescription Drugs through a Mail Order Pharmacy. As a Percent of the total drug cost or a flat rate.


What if a drug I need is not listed?

Please check the formulary for different brand and generic names. If you still cannot locate your drugs, your plan may not offer coverage. Talk to your doctor first about changing your prescription to a drug on your plan's formulary. If this is not an option, you can request an exception to have the plan review its coverage decision based on your individual circumstances.
