5 tips to make the most of your ACA plan’s pharmacy benefits
A UnitedHealthcare Individual & Family ACA Marketplace plan includes ways to save money on your prescription medication costs. Follow these 5 tips to help you get the most out of your pharmacy benefits.
Know your medications’ tiers
Prescription medications are categorized into tiers, or groups of medications categorized by cost. Your out-of-pocket cost is based on which tier your medication is in. It’s a good idea to check your medication costs when shopping for a plan so you can understand what your out-of-pocket costs might be. To do that, you’ll need to access the plan’s Prescription Drug List (PDL).
Use your plan benefits
With a UnitedHealthcare Individual & Family plan, you can visit any network pharmacy for a 1-month supply of tier 2 (preferred generic) prescriptions and pay $8 or less.1
Fill your prescription in-network
Fill your prescription at one of over 45,000 network pharmacies. By staying in-network you’ll save on out-of-pocket costs.
