SECTION I
INTRODUCTION TO SUMMARY OF BENEFITS
This booklet gives you a summary of what we cover and what
you pay. It doesn’t list every service that we cover or list every
limitation or exclusion. To get a complete list of services we
cover, call us and ask for the “Evidence of Coverage.”
Tips for comparing your Medicare choices
This Summary of Benefits booklet gives you a summary of what BlueRx covers and what you pay.
You have choices about how to get your Medicare
prescription drug benefits
One choice is to get your prescription drug coverage through a
Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, like BlueRx.
If you want to compare our plan with other Medicare health plans,
ask the other plans for their Summary of Benefits booklets. Or,
use the Medicare Plan Finder on
http://www.medicare.gov
Another choice is to get your prescription drug coverage
through a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) or
another Medicare health plan that offers Medicare prescription
drug coverage. You get all of your Part A and Part B coverage,
and prescription drug coverage (Part D) through these plans.
If you want to know more about the coverage and costs of
Original Medicare, look in your current “Medicare & You” handbook. View it online at http://www.medicare.gov or get a
copy by calling 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227), 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week. TTY users should call 1-877-486-2048.

SECTION I
INTRODUCTION TO SUMMARY OF BENEFITS
Who can join?
To join BlueRx Option I (PDP) or BlueRx Option II (PDP), you must be entitled to Medicare Part A, be enrolled in Medicare Part
B, and live in our service area.
Our service area includes the following: Alabama, Tennessee.
Which drugs are covered?
You can see the complete plan formulary (list of Part D prescription drugs) and any restrictions on our website (http://www.
bluerxalatenn.com) Or, call us and we will send you a copy of the formulary.
How will I determine my drug costs?
Our plan groups each medication into one of five “tiers.” You will need to use your formulary to locate what tier your drug is on
to determine how much it will cost you. The amount you pay depends on the drug’s tier and what stage of the benefit you have
reached. Later in this document we discuss the benefit stages that occur after you meet your deductible: Initial Coverage, Coverage
Gap, and Catastrophic Coverage.
Which pharmacies can I use?
We have a network of pharmacies and you must generally use these pharmacies to fill your prescription for covered Part D drugs.
Some of our network pharmacies have preferred cost-sharing. You may pay less if you use these pharmacies.
You can see our plan’s pharmacy directory at our website (http://www.bluerxalatenn.com). Or, call us and we will send you a
copy of the pharmacy directory.

Prescription Drug Benefits
:
Coverage Gap
Most Medicare drug plans have a coverage gap (also called the “donut hole”). This means that there’s a temporary change in
what you will pay for your drugs. The coverage gap begins after the total yearly drug cost (including what our plan has paid and
what you have paid) reaches $2,960.
After you enter the coverage gap, you pay 45% of the plan’s cost for covered brand name drugs and 65% of the plan’s cost for
covered generic drugs until your costs total $4,700, which is the end of the coverage gap. Not everyone will enter the coverage
gap.
Catastrophic Coverage
After your yearly out-of-pocket drug costs (including drugs purchased through your retail pharmacy and through mail order) reach
$4,700, you pay the greater of:
•
5% of the cost, or
•
$2.65 copay for generic (including brand drugs treated as generic) and a $6.60 copayment for all other drugs.
