Prescription Drug Costs & Benefits

Humana Gold Plus - Diabetes and Heart includes enhanced benefit Medicare Part D. Enhanced benefits offer greater coverage than basic, typically providing lower cost-sharing, broader drug coverage, and additional benefits, such as covering drugs not included in the standard formulary. These plans usually have higher premiums due to the extra coverage and flexibility they provide, but they cover a larger percentage of overall drug costs.

As of 2023, approximately 75% of people on Medicare are enrolled in enhanced plans.

Prescription Drug Premium with Extra Help

Extra Help is a Social Security program that helps people with limited income and resources lower or cut Part D costs. The following table outlines premium assistance details with Extra Help.

Premium Subsidy Details with Extra Help
Low Income Premium Subsidy: ${part_d_lips_amount}
Low Income Premium Subsidy CMS Pays: $6.20

Health Plan Compatibility

Medicare Advantage Special Needs Plans (SNPs) are generally incompatible with most other health insurance options. Enrolling in an SNP plan while having Medicare Part A and/or Medicare Part B will result in disenrollment from Original Medicare. Additionally, it is not possible to simultaneously hold a Medicare Supplement Insurance policy and be part of an SNP plan.

Members of a D-SNP maintain their current Medicaid plan and Medicaid benefits. Veterans with VA Health Benefits might have the option to receive care at a nearby VA hospital.
