New year, new changes for Medicare prescription drug coverage! As of January 1, 2024: 💊 If you have drug costs high enough to reach the "catastrophic coverage" phase in your Medicare drug coverage, you won’t have to pay a co-payment or co-insurance. (This will effectively cap out-of-pocket costs at approximately $3,250 in 2024.) 💊 The cost of a one-month supply of each Part D-covered insulin is capped at $35, and you don't have to pay a deductible. If you get a 60- or 90-day supply of insulin, your costs can’t be more than $35 for each month’s supply of each covered insulin. 💊 The “Extra Help” benefit expands to help more people with their drug costs – like Part D premiums, deductibles, and co-insurance.

If there is one thing certain in our lifetimes, it’s change. #Medicare understands your needs and budget can change during the year, so you have the opportunity to address your medical needs and budget during the Annual Enrollment Period, which happens each year from October 15th through December 7th. The primary benefits of reviewing your plan is to help you prevent such changes from negatively affecting you. If you’re impacted by a change or loss of prescription drug coverage, this requires immediate action or you could be left without coverage or costlier coverage. It’s best to stay up-to-date on any coverage changes. An #anualplanreview is essential to helping ensure you have the optimal coverage and determining the best alternatives before the Annual Enrollment Period. Contact us for one-on-one assistance with your free annual Medicare plan review today! 📞 #MedicareForAll #MedicareAdvantage #AnnualEnrollmentPeriod
