Información básica sobre los planes de cobertura de medicamentos recetados

Print

Medicare Part D prescription drug plans are also known as PDPs. Medicare Part D is a government program that offers prescription drug insurance to everyone who is entitled to Medicare Part A and/or enrolled in Medicare Part B.

When you are ready to decide on a plan, take the time to understand how the plans work. That way, you can make an informed decision and choose the plan that's right for you.

Los diferentes planes PDP cubren distintos medicamentos

El Gobierno federal tiene pautas específicas para los tipos de medicamentos que debemos cubrir, así como un estándar mínimo de beneficios que debemos seguir.

Cada plan tiene un formulario (una lista de medicamentos cubiertos) que cumple estos requisitos de acuerdo con la ley. Hay que recordar que no todos los planes son iguales. Los costos pueden variar, así como los medicamentos específicos cubiertos.

Si se inscribe en un plan de Medicare Parte D, revise el formulario del plan para asegurarse de que satisface sus necesidades de cobertura de medicamentos recetados.

Si actualmente tiene un plan Medicare Advantage

Si su plan Medicare Advantage incluye cobertura de medicamentos recetados y se une a un plan PDP de Medicare, perderá su inscripción en el plan Medicare Advantage y volverá a tener el plan Medicare Original con su PDP de Medicare.

Multa por inscripción tardía a la cobertura de medicamentos de Medicare (Parte D)

La multa por inscripción tardía es un monto que se agrega a su prima mensual del plan de medicamentos de Medicare (Part D). Es posible que deba una multa por inscripción tardía si, en cualquier momento después de que su Período de Inscripción Inicial haya finalizado, hay un período continuo de 63 días o más en el que no tiene cobertura de medicamentos de Medicare u otra cobertura acreditable de medicamentos recetados. Por lo general, deberá pagar la multa durante el tiempo que tenga cobertura de medicamentos de Medicare.

Cuando se trata de la cobertura, usted tiene opciones:

  • Puede obtener la cobertura de medicamentos recetados de Medicare mediante un PDP de Medicare (Parte D).
  • Puede inscribirse en un plan Medicare Advantage (HMO o PPO) u otro plan de salud de Medicare que ofrezca la cobertura de medicamentos recetados de Medicare.

Más ahorros. Mayor cobertura. Atención personalizada.
