Your yearly limit(s) in this plan: |

Our plan has a coverage limit every year for certain in-network benefits. Contact us for the services that apply. |

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 $3 310. After you enter the coverage gap you pay 45% of the plan's cost for covered brand name drugs and 58% of the plan's cost for covered generic drugs until your costs total $4 850 which is the end of the coverage gap. Not everyone will enter the coverage gap. |
Under this plan you may pay even less for the brand and generic drugs on the formulary. Your cost varies by tier. You will need to use your formulary to locate your drug's tier. See the chart that follows to find out how much it will cost you.
