Medicare Part D Drug Plans
Medicare Part D, the prescription drug benefit, is the part of Medicare that covers most outpatient prescription drugs. Part D is offered through private companies either as a stand-alone plan for those enrolled in Original Medicare or as a set of benefits included with your Medicare Advantage Plan
What does Medicare Part D drug plans cover?
All plans must cover a wide range of prescription drugs that people with Medicare take, including most drugs in certain protected classes," like drugs to treat cancer or HIV/AIDS. A plan's list of covered drugs is called a "formulary." Each plan has its own formulary. Many plans place drugs into different levels, called "tiers," on their formularies. Drugs in each tier have a different cost. For example, a drug in a lower tier will generally cost you less than a drug in a higher tier.
