Most 2015 Medicare Part D Plans Will Have an Initial Deductible

The standard or model 2015 Medicare Part D plan includes a $320 initial deductible; as compared to the $310 initial deductible in 2014 Medicare Part D plans.  However, although most 2015 Part D plans will not follow the 2015 standard model Medicare Part D plan exactly, the majority of 2015 Part D plans will have some type of initial deductible.  According to our calculations, less than half (42%) of all 2015 stand-alone Medicare Part D plans will offer a $0 initial deductible.  As an example, of the 31 plans available in Ohio, 13 stand-alone Medicare Part D plans will have a $0 initial deductible in 2015.
