Want to maximize your
Medicare Part D prescription
drug plan? Follow
these two simple steps:
Whenever possible and appropriate,
have your doctor prescribe
generic medications.
To meet FDA requirements,
generic medications are just
as safe and effective as their
brand-name equivalents.
Using generic drugs will reduce
your out-of-pocket costs and
make your Medicare Part D
prescription drug benefits go
further. You pay only $5 for
all covered generic drugs
until total drug costs amount
to $2,250. Once your out-ofpocket
drug costs reach $3,600,
you pay the greater of $2 for
a generic or preferred brand
drug that is a multisource
drug, and $5 for all other drugs,
or 5 percent coinsurance.
Our network includes all
the major drugstore chains
in Florida, as well as many
independent pharmacies.
With your plan, you have
access to a comprehensive
selection of covered drugs at
more than 3,000 pharmacies
in Florida—and more than
55,000 nationwide.
If you have questions, call
customer service at the number
on your Medicare Part D
ID card. Also, visit our website
for educational materials
about Medicare Part D and
pharmacies listed in the
online provider directory.
