As part of your Medicare Part D prescription drug plan, this benefit outlines the initial cost of a 3-month supply of a non-preferred generic or brand-name medication purchased through mail order.
Non-Preferred: This means the medication is not on the plan’s preferred drug list, which typically results in higher out-of-pocket costs compared to preferred options. To view the list of non-preferred drugs, visit your plan’s website or consult your provider.
Cost: For in-network mail-order pharmacies, the cost for this 3-month supply is detailed above, offering a more affordable option for managing your prescriptions. Choosing an out-of-network pharmacy will incur the higher out-of-network cost listed above. This structure encourages the use of in-network pharmacies for lower and more predictable costs.
