As we approach 2025, significant changes are coming to Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. These changes are designed to make medications more affordable for seniors, and it’s important to understand how they can impact your current coverage. Here’s what you need to know about the upcoming changes.

Annual Cap on Out-of-Pocket Costs in 2025

In 2025, an important new benefit will be introduced:

  • $2,000 Out-of-Pocket Cap: Your yearly out-of-pocket costs for Part D prescription drugs will be capped at $2,000. This change offers peace of mind by limiting how much you have to spend each year on medications.
  • Monthly Payment Option: In 2025, you’ll have the option to pay your out-of-pocket costs in monthly amounts spread over the plan year, rather than all at once when you fill a prescription. This can make it easier to manage your budget.
