Medicare Part D Plans for DelawarePrescription Drug Plans for Delaware Seniors on Medicare

Delaware seniors can choose from 21 Medicare Part D Plans in 2018. Choose carefully, and don’t settle on a prescription drug plan until you know that your most expensive medications are covered at a price you can afford. This information is available in the plan’s formulary. The formulary also gives you the co-payment information.

2018 Coverage Gap on all Delaware Medicare Part D Plans

If you have expensive prescriptions, chances are that you will reach the Medicare coverage gap (aka, donut hole) on your plan. The Affordable Care Act law closes the gap over the new few years, but it’s still with us in 2018. Until it’s gone you’ll need to use good sense to get through the period when your medications are not covered.

Using a Delaware Medigap Policy with a Medicare Part D Plan

Medicare does not pay for all of your hospital and doctor bills. Even with the new healthcare law in place, Original Medicare only pays about 80 percent of your major healthcare bills in Delaware. The rest comes out of your pocket. To protect yourself from the high cost of an illness or injury that requires hopitalization, you need a Medigap supplemental Medicare insurance policy. We publish a complete catalog of Medigap policies for Delaware seniors with the tools you need to find the most affordable policy with the best coverage.
