• Your monthly plan premium will be more if you are required to pay a lifetime Part D late enrollment penalty for going without other drug coverage that is at least as good as Medicare drug coverage (also referred to as “creditable coverage”) for 63 days or more.
• If you have a higher income, you may have to pay an additional amount each month directly to the government for your Medicare prescription drug coverage.

 

Maximum Out-of-Pocket

To protect you, Medicare requires all health plans to limit how much you pay “out-of-pocket” during the year. This limit is called the “maximum out-of-pocket amount.” Once you reach the maximum out-of-pocket amount, you generally pay nothing for covered Part A and Part B services for the rest of the year.

Cost	2020
