Prescription Drug Coverage (Part D).

Wellcare Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plans help to cover the cost of prescription drugs. Our plans offer coverage and support for the medications you take to feel and be your independent best.

Part D Coverage stages.

Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage includes four cost-sharing stages. The amount you pay to fill your prescription drugs depends on the payment stage you are in.

Stage 1: Deductible

The amount you pay before a plan covers your prescription drugs costs, if applicable. Some Wellcare plans have no deductible.

Stage 2: Initial coverage

During this stage, the plan pays its share of the cost, and you pay your share. You are in this stage until your payments and the plan’s payments total $5,030 for the year.

Stage 3: Coverage gap

When your drug costs and plan payments for the year reach $5,030, you enter the Coverage Gap Stage, commonly known as the “Donut Hole.” In this stage, you will pay 25% of the cost for covered generic and brand-name drugs until your out-of-pocket costs for the year reach $8,000.

Stage 4: Catastrophic coverage

After your out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs reach $8,000, you pay $0 for brand and generic drugs for the remainder of the year.

Part D is one of Medicare's four different parts.

Part A – Hospital Insurance

Part B – Medical Insurance

Part C – Medicare Advantage

Part D – Prescription Drug Coverage
