Monthly Premium, Deductible, and Limits on How Much You Pay for Covered Services
$116 per month. In addition you must keep paying your Medicare Part B premium.
This plan does not have a deductible.
Yes. Like all Medicare health plans our plan protects you by having yearly limits on your out-of-pocket costs for medical and hospital care.

Your limit for services received from in-network providers and your limit for services received from out-of-network providers will count toward this limit.
If you reach the limit on out-of-pocket costs you keep getting covered hospital and medical services and we will pay the full cost for the rest of the year.
Please note that you will still need to pay your monthly premiums and cost-sharing for your Part D prescription drugs.
Our plan has a coverage limit every year for certain in-network benefits. Contact us for the services that apply.

If you reside in a long-term care facility you pay the same as at a retail pharmacy.
You may get drugs from an out-of-network pharmacy but may pay more than you pay at an in-network pharmacy.
Most Medicare drug plans have a coverage gap (also called the "donut hole"). This means that there's a temporary change in what you will pay for your drugs. The coverage gap begins after the total yearly drug cost (including what our plan has paid and what you have paid) reaches $2 960.

After you enter the coverage gap you pay 45% of the plan's cost for covered brand name drugs and 65% of the plan's cost for covered generic drugs until your costs total $4 700 which is the end of the coverage gap. Not everyone will enter the coverage gap.

After your yearly out-of-pocket drug costs (including drugs purchased through your retail pharmacy and through mail order) reach $4 700 you pay the greater of:
  • 5% of the cost or
  • $2.65 copay for generic (including brand drugs treated as generic) and a $6.60 copayment for all other drugs.

                          Most Medicare drug plans have a coverage gap (also called the "donut hole"). This means that there's a temporary change in what you will pay for your drugs. The coverage gap begins after the total yearly drug cost (including what our plan has paid and what you have paid) reaches $2 960.

                          After you enter the coverage gap you pay 45% of the plan's cost for covered brand name drugs and 65% of the plan's cost for covered generic drugs until your costs total $4 700 which is the end of the coverage gap. Not everyone will enter the coverage gap.

                          After your yearly out-of-pocket drug costs (including drugs purchased through your retail pharmacy and through mail order) reach $4 700 you pay the greater of:
                          • 5% of the cost or
                          • $2.65 copay for generic (including brand drugs treated as generic) and a $6.60 copayment for all other drugs.

The plan deposits money from Medicare into the account. You can use this money to pay for your health care costs, but only Medicare-covered expenses count toward your deductible. The amount deposited is usually less than your deductible amount, so you generally have to pay out-of-pocket before your coverage begins.
