gap in 2011, you will receive a 50% discount on your brand-name drugs. Click here to learn more. |

Catastrophic Coverage |
After your yearly out-of-pocket drug costs reach $4,550, you pay the greater of: A $2.50 copay for generic (including brand-name drugs treated as generic) and a $6.30 copay for all other drugs, or 5% coinsurance. We pay the rest. |
Explanation of Benefits
You receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) each month in which you have a claim. The EOB shows you what drug costs we covered. The EOB also tracks your spending and ours, so you always know how close you are to the gap.
