Prescription drug plans, also known as Part D, help pay for covered drugs since Original Medicare does not cover them. To check if you qualify for a Blue Cross MedicareRx plan visit our Eligibility and Enrollment page. All PDP plans have a nationwide pharmacy network. You can get your prescriptions in your neighborhood or across the country.

You will pay a copayment or coinsurance for your prescriptions and some plans may also have a deductible that will need to be met before benefits start. Copayments and coinsurances can change during these times.

With Blue Cross MedicareRx plans, you get:

  • Fixed copayments and coinsurances, with $0 copayments for many drugs at preferred pharmacies
  • A broad drug list
  • Mail-order and network pharmacies nationwide
  • Coverage backed by one of the state’s leading insurers
