Prescription Drug Coverage: Deductible, Cost-sharing, Formulary
This plan does NOT have a deductible for the prescription drug coverage. That means that you have first dollar coverage. Some plans have a deductible that must be paid (in full) prior to the prescription coverage assisting in your prescription costs (see cost-sharing below). The maximum deductible for 2013 is $325. This plan (Simply Complete (HMO SNP)) has no deductible.

The following information is about the Simply Complete (HMO SNP) formulary (or drug list). There are 3165 drugs on the Simply Complete (HMO SNP) formulary. Click here to browse the Simply Complete (HMO SNP) Formulary.
 
The Initial Coverage Phase (ICP) can be thought of as the cost-sharing phase of the plan. During this phase, you and the insurance company share your prescription costs. Since this plan has no deductible, your coverage (initial coverage phase) will start right away. All medication are divided into tiers within the plans formulary. This helps the plan to organize and manage the prescription cost-sharing. The Simply Complete (HMO SNP)’s formulary is divided into 5 tiers. Every plan can name their tiers differently, and can place medications on any tier. The cost-sharing for this plan is divided as follows:
  • Tier 1 (Preferred Generic) contains 1,307 drugs and has a co-payment of $0.00.
  • Tier 2 (Non-Preferred Generic) contains 681 drugs and has a co-payment of $0.00.
  • Tier 3 (Preferred Brand) contains 256 drugs and has a co-payment of $45.00.
  • Tier 4 (Non-Preferred Brand) contains 815 drugs and has a co-payment of $75.00.
  • Tier 5 (Specialty Tier) contains 374 drugs and has a co-insurance of 33% of the drug cost.

The Coverage Gap, which is also known as the Donut (Doughnut) Hole is the phase of your Medicare Part D plan where you are responsible for 100% of your medication costs. Healthcare Reform mandates that the insurance carrier pay 21% of your generic drug prescription costs in the donut hole on your behalf.

The brand-name drug manufacturer will pay 50% and your plan will pay an additional 2.5% of the cost of your brand-name drugs purchased in the Donut Hole, for a total of 52.5% discount. The 50% paid by the brand-name drug manufacturer is paid on your behalf and therefore counts toward your TrOOP (or True Out-of-Pocket) costs. The portion paid by your plan, does not count toward TrOOP. Some Medicare Part D plans offer coverage during the Coverage Gap that is beyond the mandated discounts. Any drug not covered by the plan’s Gap Coverage will still receive the discounts noted above -- even if the plan has "No Gap Coverage". This plan (Simply Complete (HMO SNP))offers Coverage for during the Coverage Gap phase.
