Medicare Coverage Gap Discount Program
Beginning in 2011, the Medicare Coverage Gap Discount Program will provide manufacturer discounts on brand name drugs to Part D enrollees who have reached the coverage gap and are not already receiving "Extra Help." A 50% discount on the negotiated price (excluding the dispensing fee) will be available for those brand name drugs from manufacturers that have agreed to pay the discount.
We will automatically apply the discount when your pharmacy bills you for your prescription and your Explanation of Benefits will show any discount provided. The amount discounted by the manufacturer counts toward your out-of-pockets costs as if you had paid this amount and moves you through the coverage gap.
If you have any questions about the availability of discounts for the drugs you are taking or about the Medicare Coverage Gap Discount Program in general, please contact our Member Services Department 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., seven days a week:
