Yes. Q1Medicare offers a number of online tools designed to help you learn more about your Medicare Part D and Medicare Advantage plan options and coverage.
You can use the following links to go directly to the Q1Medicare.com features that are important to you:
- PDP-Finder.com - Our stand-alone Medicare Part D prescription drug plan (PDP) search tool or Plan Finder was designed to help people get a quick overview of all stand-alone Medicare Part D plans in their service area with key PDP information along with links to additional plan details and our Formulary Browser.
The PDP-Finder provides a unique collection of prescription drug plan details including: drug tier copayments, initial deductibles, monthly premiums, Part D plan IDs, Initial Coverage Limits, supplemental Donut Hole or Gap coverage, formulary size, and Medicare plan quality star ratings.
You can click on the plan name or “Benefits & Contact Info” for more information about the specific Medicare PDP (including the plan's toll-free telephone number).
- MA-Finder.com - Our Medicare Advantage plan finder allows you to review all Medicare Advantage plans (MA, MAPD, and SNP) in your service area (county or Zip Code area).
Medicare Advantage plans combine your Medicare hospitalization coverage (Medicare Part A), out-patient coverage (Medicare Part B) - and may provide your Medicare prescription drug coverage (Medicare Part D), dental, vision, fitness center coverage, and other supplemental benefits.
In some areas, Medicare Advantage plans with prescription drug coverage are offered with a $0 monthly premium and a $0 initial deductible (or a Medicare Advantage plan may even have a $0 premium and "give back" or rebate a portion of your Medicare Part B premium).
You can use our MA-Finder for searching and comparing all Medicare Advantage plans across the country by plan features. Since Medicare Advantage plans are offered on a county-by-county basis, begin by entering your ZIP code. You can click here for an example of $0 premium Medicare Advantage plans that include prescription drug coverage (MAPDs) in New York, NY – just change the ZIP code to see the plans in your area.
Click on the plan name or the “Benefits & Contact Info” button for more information about a specific Medicare Advantage plan.
You may wish to telephone the Medicare Advantage plan (using the toll-free number provided on the same page) to confirm or clarify any cost-sharing details that you find unclear. (For example, "What will I pay if I visit an out-of-network healthcare provider without a referral from my primary care physician?")
- PDP-Planner.com or Donut Hole cost estimator - Our Donut Hole Calculator helps you estimate when you will enter the Coverage Gap and provides an idea of your monthly and annual Medicare Part D prescription drug spending. You can begin by entering your monthly retail drug costs and choose the variables that apply to your Medicare drug plan, then you can see how you move through the different phases of your Part D plan coverage.
