Are you ready for Medicare’s
prescription drug program
(Part D) that begins Jan. 1,
2006? You should consider
joining a plan unless you have
drug coverage that, on average,
is at least as good as
Medicare prescription drug
coverage.*
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of
Florida is offering BlueScript
for Medicare Part D to people
eligible for Medicare Part A
or enrolled in Part B, or both.
The premium is $45.89 per
month for Option 1 and $57.71
per month for Option 2, which
offers greater coverage. To be
covered on Jan. 1, 2006, you
must join by Dec. 31, 2005.
You get more
With BlueScript for Medicare
Part D, the deductible is only
$100 for brand-name drugs.
There is no annual deductible
for generic drugs. The copay
for generics at a network**
pharmacy is only $5.
What’s more, before their
deductible is met, BlueScript
for Medicare Part D enrollees
won’t have to pay standard
retail prices for covered
brand-name prescriptions.
We’ve negotiated discounts
with participating pharmacies.
What “coverage gap”?
We’ve also negotiated discounts
on covered prescription
drugs for BlueScript for
Medicare Part D enrollees
during the coverage gap
when prescription drug costs
total $2,251 until your out-of-pocket
costs reach $3,600
annually. Option 2 saves you
even more. It extends generic
prescription drug coverage
through the gap period.
If your out-of-pocket prescription
drug costs exceed $3,600
during 2006, your BlueScript
for Medicare Part D copay is
only $2 for covered generics
and preferred brands that are
multi-source drugs and $5 for
all other covered drugs—or 5
percent of the cost, whichever
is greater.
