Part D coverage
MVP offers Medicare prescription drug coverage (Part D) with our Preferred Gold plan. If you wish to join our Preferred Gold plan and you also want prescription drug overage, you must select Part D prescription drug coverage from MVP Health Care.
MVP’s coverage for medically necessary Medicare Part D approved drugs includes:
- Tier 1 – Preferred Generic Drugs
- Tier 2 – Preferred Brand Name Drugs
- Tier 3 – Non-preferred Brand Name and Non-preferred Generic Drugs
- Tier 4 – Specialty Drugs
- Tier 5 – No Cost Generic Drugs
Part D drugs excluded from our formulary must go through an exception process in order to be covered. If they are approved, they will be covered in Tier 3.
Once your total drug expenses in 2012 reach $2,930, you will pay 86% for generic drugs, 50% for Medicare-contracted brands, 100% for non-Medicare contracted brands and $0 for Tier 5 drugs. When you have paid $4,700 out of pocket in 2012, your cost for prescriptions is reduced to the greater of 5% or $2.60 for generics and $6.50 for brand-name drugs in Tiers 1-4. Tier 5 drugs will be $0..
If you are taking a Tier 5 medication, it will be $0 in the initial coverage phase, coverage gap or “donut hole” and catastrophic coverage phase.
