2021 Part D Updates: over $1m in savings... so Far

Over the last few weeks we have been very busy with the Annual Part D Drug Plan reviews.  We have received overall 1,000 requests for reviews and a majority have already been processed all within our target turnaround timeframes.

For the 2021 Part D recommendations we have completed thus far, the projected 2021 Part D savings is more than $1,000,000!


Top 6 Plans so far for 2021

We run the analysis to identify the most-cost effective Part D Plan using the Medicare Plan Finder.  You can watch a quick video using this link, if you are interested in how we identify the most cost-effective plan.

There are about 30 Part D plans to choose from in each state.  From our reviews, the top 6 plans thus far (table above) make up about 80% of the recommendations thus far.


Open Issue with Cigna & Express Scripts - will be resolved on Monday, Oct 26, 2020
For those of you that currently have a Cigna or Express Scripts Part D Plan, there is an issue with the data file that these carriers provided to CMS on October 15.  This data issue is preventing us from reviewing your Part D Plans until the data issue is resolved.  We are in close contact with CMS, and we are told this data issue should be resolved on October 26.  If this is fixed correctly, we will be able to get to your Review & Recommendations by the first week of November.


If you haven't already sent in your 2021 Part D Review request, you can click this link to submit your 2021 information for a 2021 Part D Review.  Our deadline to receive the information is November 15 to provide enough time to complete the reviews, recommendations, and enrollments by the government deadline of December 7.  ​
