Drug costs for 2024

The higher a drug's cost level or "tier," the higher the cost. In the chart below, you'll see what you'll pay for each drug tier for: 

  • A 30-day supply at a preferred retail pharmacy
  • A 30-day supply at a standard pharmacy, and 
  • A 90-day supply through our preferred mail order pharmacy, Express Scripts (with free shipping)

Costs may vary when your plan is provided by an employer.

Your drug copays/coinsurance

This is what you'll pay until you reach $5,030 in total drug costs for the year (the combined total of what you have paid plus what Priority Health has paid for your prescriptions).

After you reach $5,030 in drug costs

Once you and Priority Health combined spend $5,030 for your drugs during the year, then you enter what's called the "coverage gap." During this gap, you'll pay:

  • 25% of the cost of your generic drugs
  • 25% of the cost of your brand drugs, plus dispensing fee

Then, once your out-of-pocket Part D drug costs reach $8,000, for the rest of the year you pay $0. Starting in 2024, there will be $0 cost share in the catastrophic phrase.
