I'm taking a brand-name medication that doesn't have a generic version. How can I find a Medicare Part D plan that will cover it at a reasonable cost?

The changes in 2025 to Part D has caused every plan to review and adjust coverage. Not every plan covers every drug in their forumulary. This was the area I spent the most time on this year for my clients to help them get the coverage needed...

If you do not choose to work with an agent or broker, you'll need to compare plans and their formularies, considering premiums, copays, and the network of pharmacies.
1) Create a list of your medications and dosages.
2) Go to www.medicare.gov
3) Scroll down to "Find health & drug plans" and click on "Find Plans Now."
4) Enter your zip code and click "Continue."
5) Select "Medicare drug plan (Part D)" then click "Find Plans."
6) Follow the prompts to select the options that apply to you.
7) Add all your medications to the list, then click "Done Adding Drugs."
8) Select your pharmacy preferences then click "Continue to View Plans."
NOTE: I always recommend searching with Mail Order and 4 local pharmacies selected
to get a better range of options.
9) Now, compare the plans that are available for your area and choose one.

You will be presented with all the options available in your area. Compare three insurers side by side to see who they are similar and how they are different. Select the plan that fits your budget.
