  • Tier 1: Preferred Generic – includes lowest cost preferred generic drugs
  • Tier 2: Generic – includes preferred generic drugs
  • Tier 3: Preferred Brand – includes preferred brand drugs and non-preferred generic drugs
  • Tier 4: Non-Preferred – includes non-preferred brand drugs and non-preferred generic drugs

Medicare Prescription Payment Plan

The Medicare Prescription Payment Plan is a new payment option in the prescription drug law that works with your current drug coverage to help you manage your out of-pocket Medicare Part D drug costs by spreading them across the calendar year (January-December).

Starting in 2025, anyone with a Medicare drug plan or Medicare health plan with drug coverage* (like a Medicare Advantage Plan with drug coverage) can use this payment option. All plans offer this payment option and participation is voluntary.

If you select this payment option, each month you’ll continue to pay your plan premium (if you have one), and you’ll get a bill from your health or drug plan to pay for your prescription drugs (instead of paying the pharmacy). There’s no cost to participate in the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan.

For more information, please see the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan Facts Sheet.
