Based on changes of how Medicare will pay the insurance companies, especially as it relates to prescriptions, this AEP will likely be dramatically different.The good news: Maximum annual out-of-pocket drug co-pay has been reduced by $1,000
The bad news: Insurance companies will likely need to make up the difference by:
· Changing their drug formularies (which drugs they cover)
· Introducing higher drug co-pays on lower tier (less expensive) drugs. It’s even possible that they add co-pays to generic drugs that previously had $0 co-pays
· And there could be changes to the coverage of things like vision, dental and hearing portion of their plans.
