Medication Management Therapy
The Medication Management Therapy program promotes collaboration between you, your pharmacist, and your prescribing doctor for safe and effective medication use. The goal of this program is to improve health outcomes by focusing on safety, effectiveness, lower-cost alternatives, and adherence.
Medicare Prescription Payment Plan
The Medicare Prescription Payment Plan (MPPP) is an optional program that can help you manage your prescription payments. With this program:
- Costs for your covered Part D prescriptions are spread out over the plan year.
- You pay $0 at the pharmacy when you fill new or existing covered Part D prescriptions.
- You’ll receive a monthly bill from CarePlus with the amount you owe, your due date, and instructions on how to make a payment.
This payment option might help you manage your expenses, but it does not save you money or lower your drug costs.
