How Part D Works
You Pay Co-Pay |
Retail Price |
$7 |
$100 |
$29, etc. |
$250, etc. |
When the co-pay and retail amount totals $2,700*… you are in the “Doughnut Hole.” You pay full price until you have paid $1,650* out of your own pocket. You are now out of the GAP and you pay the greater of $2.40 or $6 or 5%.
*This does vary by plan.
