¿Qué es el Plan de Pago para Recetas Médicas de Medicare?

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 costs for drugs covered by your plan by spreading them across the calendar year (JanuaryDecember). 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.

Si selecciona esta opción de pago, cada mes continuará pagando la prima de su plan (si tiene una) y recibirá una factura de su plan de salud o de medicamentos para pagar sus medicamentos recetados (en lugar de pagarle a la farmacia). No hay ningún costo para participar en el Plan de Pago de Recetas de Medicare.

This payment option might help you manage your monthly expenses, but it doesn’t save you money or lower your drug costs. Learn about other programs that might save you money, if you qualify.
