Prescription Drug Costs & Benefits

UHC Care Advantage WA-E001 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.

Low Income Premium Subsidy: ${part_d_lips_amount}
