Prescription Drug Coverage: Deductible, Cost-sharing, Formulary
This plan does NOT have a deductible for the prescription drug coverage. That means that you have first dollar coverage. Some plans have a deductible that must be paid (in full) prior to the prescription coverage assisting in your prescription costs (see cost-sharing below). The maximum deductible for 2016 is $360. This plan (Martin's Point Generations Advantage Select (PPO)) has no deductible.

The following information is about the Martin's Point Generations Advantage Select (PPO) formulary (or drug list). There are 3020 drugs on the Martin's Point Generations Advantage Select (PPO) formulary. Click here to browse the Martin's Point Generations Advantage Select (PPO) Formulary.
 
The Initial Coverage Phase (ICP) can be thought of as the cost-sharing phase of the plan. During this phase, you and the insurance company share your prescription costs. Since this plan has no deductible, your coverage (initial coverage phase) will start right away. All medication are divided into tiers within the plans formulary. This helps the plan to organize and manage the prescription cost-sharing. The Martin's Point Generations Advantage Select (PPO)’s formulary is divided into 5 tiers. Every plan can name their tiers differently, and can place medications on any tier. The cost-sharing for this plan is divided as follows:
  • Tier 1 (Preferred Generic) contains 454 drugs and has a co-payment of $0.00.
  • Tier 2 (Generic) contains 1,465 drugs and has a co-payment of $8.00.
  • Tier 3 (Preferred Brand) contains 309 drugs and has a co-payment of $40.00.
  • Tier 4 (Non-Preferred Brand) contains 388 drugs and has a co-payment of $95.00.
  • Tier 5 (Specialty Tier) contains 557 drugs and has a co-insurance of 33% of the drug cost.

The Coverage Gap, which is also known as the Donut (Doughnut) Hole is the phase of your Medicare Part D plan where you are responsible for 100% of your medication costs. Healthcare Reform mandates that the insurance carrier pay 42% of your generic drug prescription costs in the donut hole on your behalf.

The brand-name drug manufacturer will pay 50% and your plan will pay an additional 5% of the cost of your brand-name drugs purchased in the Donut Hole, for a total of 55% discount. The 50% paid by the brand-name drug manufacturer is paid on your behalf and therefore counts toward your TrOOP (or True Out-of-Pocket) costs. The portion paid by your plan, does not count toward TrOOP. Some Medicare Part D plans offer coverage during the Coverage Gap that is beyond the mandated discounts. Any drug not covered by the plan’s Gap Coverage will still receive the discounts noted above -- even if the plan has "No Gap Coverage". This plan (Martin's Point Generations Advantage Select (PPO)) offers No Coverage during the Coverage Gap phase.

The Martin's Point Generations Advantage Select (PPO) offers many Health and Prescription Drug Coverage Benefits. The following section will describe these benefits in detail.

                          • Medicare evaluates plans based on a 5-Star rating system. Star Ratings are calculated each year and may change from one year to the next.
                          • A Medicare Advantage Private Fee-for-Service plan (PFFS) is not a Medicare supplement plan. Providers who do not contract with the plan are not required to see you except in an emergency.
                          • Disclaimer for Institutional Special Needs Plan (SNP): This plan is available to anyone with Medicare who meets the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) level of care and resides in a nursing home.
                          • Disclaimer for Dual Eligible (Medicare/Medicaid) Special Needs Plan (SNP): This plan is available to anyone who has both Medical Assistance from the State and Medicare.

                          • Medicare MSA Plans combine a high deductible Medicare Advantage Plan and a trust or custodial savings account (as defined and/or approved by the IRS). The plan deposits money from Medicare into the account. You can use this money to pay for your health care costs, but only Medicare-covered expenses count toward your deductible. The amount deposited is usually less than your deductible amount, so you generally have to pay out-of-pocket before your coverage begins.
                          • Medicare MSA Plans do not cover prescription drugs. If you join a Medicare MSA Plan, you can also join any separate (stand-alone) Medicare Part D prescription drug plan
                          • There are additional restrictions to join an MSA plan, and enrollment is generally for a full calendar year unless you meet certain exceptions. Those who disenroll during the calendar year will owe a portion of the account deposit back to the plan. Contact the plan provider for additional information.
