Overview of Medicare Prescription Plans
Medicare Part D provides prescription drug coverage through private insurance companies approved by Medicare. In Medicare Part D Arizona plans, you may choose either a stand-alone Prescription Drug Plan (PDP) or get drug coverage bundled in a Medicare Advantage plan (MAPD).
Each plan has its own list of covered drugs, called a formulary, and its own pharmacy network. Plans may vary in premiums, deductibles, and copayments. Because Arizona residents have dozens of options, comparing plans each year is crucial.
What Does Medicare Part D Cover?
Medicare Part D Arizona plans generally cover both brand-name and generic prescription drugs. They are organized into tiers, where lower tiers typically have lower out-of-pocket costs. Covered drug types may include:
Medications for chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure)
Antibiotics
Inhalers
Antidepressants
However, not every medication is covered under every plan. Reviewing the plan’s formulary is essential before enrolling.
Key Questions About Medicare Part D Arizona
How much does Medicare Part D cost in Arizona?
Costs can vary by plan. You may pay a monthly premium, an annual deductible, copayments, and possibly a late enrollment penalty.
What is the coverage gap or “donut hole”?
This is a temporary limit on what the plan will pay for drugs. After you and your plan spend a certain amount, you pay more out of pocket—until catastrophic coverage kicks in.
When can I enroll in Medicare Part D?
You can enroll when first eligible for Medicare, during the Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 – December 7), or if you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period.
