Drug Safety and Accuracy of Drug Pricing |
Way below South Carolina standards, we can't recommend this plan. Here's why. South Carolina seniors looking for a plan that prioritizes customer service may be disapointed with Mutual of Omaha Rx Plus because the plan's customer service score is below average. This plan gets an excessive number of complaints from its members. Sadly, the overall member experience with this Mutual of Omaha plan is poor. As compared to other plans, Medicare says this plan does a poor job managing drug safety and the accuracy of drug pricing.
The true value of any Medicare Part D plan can only be judged by how well it covers your medications. Some basic benefit plans have a lower monthly cost than this one. If this plan covers your prescriptions at the best price, it's fine. Pay attention to the deductible. This plan is not like other plans. It does not exclude any tiers from the deductible. Other plans do.
