You can't judge a Part D plan on its monthly premium or annual deductible. You have to look at the overall cost of your prescriptions. You can find basic benefits plans that have a lower monthly fee than this one. That's OK if the plan covers your prescriptions at the lowest possible price. Pay attention to the deductible. This plan is not like other plans. It does not exclude any tiers from the deductible. Other plans do.
