How can an independent co-pay foundation help you with Medicare Part D Coverage?

Depending on your total drug costs, your Medicare Part D coverage changes. At each point, however, you will need to pay for part of your medications. If you cannot afford to pay, an independent co-pay foundation may help you cover your costs.

Click on the Medicare Part D coverage phases in the buttons below or drag the slider to see how an independent co-pay foundation can help you.

When your total drug costs are between $2,840 and $6,448, you reach the Medicare Part D coverage gap, or "donut hole." This means Medicare stops covering your drug costs. When you reach the donut hole, you need to pay for half of your drug costs. The drug company automatically covers the other half. At this point, you will need to pay up to $2,747 yourself.
