Chart Legend:

Below are a few notes to help with the understanding of the 2025 Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan chart above and Search Tips to help you narrow down your list of plans to those that best meet your needs.

  • Plan Name: This is the official plan name from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The same plan name generally has a different plan id in each state. (Search Tip: If you would like to reduce the plans shown to just plans for one or two specific carriers, you can select the carrier name in the "Plan Family" fields 1 and 2. Select the empty (blank) option at the top of the list to remove the criteria. You can also click the "National Plans" checkbox to limit your search to just national plans.)

  • CMS Plan Ratings: these are found under the Plan Name at the left side of the chart.
    This is a 1 to 5 star rating system with five (5) stars as excellent, four (4) stars as very good, three (3) stars as good, two (2) stars as fair and one (1) star as poor.

    • Cust. Service Rating - Drug Plan Customer Service - Medicare and members rate the drug plan and how well a drug plan provides customer service.

      This category includes measures of how drug plans rate on the following areas:
      • Time on Hold When Customer and Pharmacist Calls Drug Plan.
      • Calls Disconnected When Customer and Pharmacist Calls Drug Plan.
      • Drug Plan’s Timeliness in Giving a Decision for Members Who Make an Appeal.
      • Fairness of Drug Plan’s Denials to a Member’s Appeal, Based on an Independent Reviewer.

    • Member Plan Exper. - Member Experience with Drug Plan - This category shows how well drug plans make prescription drugs available to their members.

      This category includes measures of how drug plans rate on the following areas:
      • Drug Plan Provides Information or Help When Members Need It.
      • Members’ Overall Rating of Drug Plan.
      • Members’ Ability to Get Prescriptions Filled Easily When Using the Drug Plan.

    • RxCost Info Rating - This category shows how well drug plans are doing with pricing prescriptions and providing information on the Medicare website.

      This category includes measures of how drug plans rate on the following areas:
      • Completeness of the Drug Plan’s Information on Members Who Need Extra Help.
      • Drug Plan Provides Current Information on Costs and Coverage for Medicare’s Website (the same data is used on this Q1Medicare.com).
      • Drug Plan’s Prices that Did Not Increase More Than Expected During the Year.
      • Drug Plan’s Prices on Medicare’s Website (and this website) Are Similar to the Prices Members Pay at the Pharmacy.
      • Drug Plan’s Members 65 and Older Who Received Prescriptions for Certain Drugs with a High Risk of Side Effects, when There May Be Safer Drug Choices.

  • Monthly Premium: This is the amount you must pay each month to use the plan. This monthly premium must be paid even if you are in the initial deductible phase. (Search Tip: If you would like to reduce the plans shown to just plans under a certain premium, enter this value in the "Maximum Premium" field.)

    (Search Tip: If you have selected an amount in the "LIS Subsidy Amount" filed, the premium shown is the premium based on your Low-Income Subsidy selection.

  • Deductible: The standard CMS plan initial deductible is $590. Many Medicare plans do not have a deductible; however their plan premium may be higher. (Search Tip: If you would like to reduce the plans shown to just plans with a deductible under a certain value, enter this value in the "Maximum Deductible" field.) Some plans that have an annual deductible exempt certain drug tiers from the deductible. For example, "Tier 1 exempt" may be shown. This would mean that Tier 1 drugs purchased during the Deductible phase, would not fall into the deductible and would be charged the Initial Coverage Phase tier 1 cost-sharing.

  • $0 Premium with Full LIS - Does the plan qualify for $0 premium with Low-Income Subsidy?: If Yes is in the field, then you would pay a $0 premium if you have a Low-Income Subsidy (LIS). If No is in the field, then you may be responsible for a portion of the plan premium, even if you have Extra Help. (Search Tip: If you would like to reduce the plans shown to just plans that qualify for the $0 premium (Benchmark plans), select "Yes..." in the "Show only Low-Income Subsidy $0 Plans?" field.)

  • Plan ID: This is the unique id for this particular plan.

  • Copay / Coinsurance - Cost Sharing - This is what you will pay for formulary drugs in the Initial Coverage Phase of your plan. This is the phase after the initial deductible has been met and before you reach your maximum cap on out-of-pocket spending for Part D formulary drugs - RxMOOP. Plans often cover drugs in "tiers". Tiers are specific to the list of drugs covered by the plan. Plans may have several tiers, and the copay for a drug depends on the drug’s tier. Plans can form their own tiers, so you should contact the plan or reference their summary of benefits to find out what copays and limitations are associated with each tier. (Search Tip: If you would like to reduce the plans shown to just plans that have a tier 1 (Generics) co-pay of up to a certain value (ex: $0 co-pay), enter the value (ex: 0) in the "Max. Co-pay Tier 1 (Generics)" field.)


Additional Information Fields:
You can select one of the following additional pieces of plan information to display (Search Tip: to change the type of information shown in the last column of the chart, select the data to be shown in the "Additional Info" field.)
  • Total Formulary Drugs (default) - This is the total number of medications on the plans formulary or drug list. This total drug count does not include "Bonus Drugs".

For regions that contain more than one state, this is the total for all of those states combined. If the CMS Region contains more than one state, the actual state enrollment is shown, along with the CMS region and national enrollment figures on the plan details page. you can access the plan details by clicking the plan name, orange enroll options button, or the plan details icon.

  • Members Nation Wide (updated: September 2024 figures) - This is the total number of member for this plan in all CMS Regions (States) combined.

  • National or Regional Plans - This column simply displays the word "National" if the plan is sponsored by a national carrier or "Regional" if the plan sponsor is a regional carrier.

  • Medicare evaluates plans based on a 5-Star rating system. Star Ratings are calculated each year and may change from one year to the next.
  • A Medicare Advantage Private Fee-for-Service plan (PFFS) is not a Medicare supplement plan. Providers who do not contract with the plan are not required to see you except in an emergency.
  • Disclaimer for Institutional Special Needs Plan (SNP): This plan is available to anyone with Medicare who meets the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) level of care and resides in a nursing home.
  • Disclaimer for Dual Eligible (Medicare/Medicaid) Special Needs Plan (SNP): This plan is available to anyone who has both Medical Assistance from the State and Medicare. Premiums, co-pays, co-insurance, and deductibles may vary based on the level of Extra Help you receive. Please contact the plan for further details.
  • Disclaimer for Chronic Condition Special Needs Plan (SNP): This plan is available to anyone with Medicare who has been diagnosed with the plan specific Chronic Condition.
  • Medicare MSA Plans combine a high deductible Medicare Advantage Plan and a trust or custodial savings account (as defined and/or approved by the IRS). 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.
  • Medicare MSA Plans do not cover prescription drugs. If you join a Medicare MSA Plan, you can also join any separate (stand-alone) Medicare Part D prescription drug plan
  • There are additional restrictions to join an MSA plan, and enrollment is generally for a full calendar year unless you meet certain exceptions. Those who disenroll during the calendar year will owe a portion of the account deposit back to the plan. Contact the plan provider for additional information.
  • Medicare beneficiaries may enroll through the CMS Medicare Online Enrollment Center located at www.medicare.gov.
