How does my prescription coverage work when enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan?
When enrolled in the High Deductible Health Plan, you can expect to pay the negotiated price for your prescriptions, that are not on the Preventative Drug List, until your HDHP annual deductible is met.
Coverage highlights of the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP)
You probably noticed that the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) has a higher deductible and lower monthly premiums than a typical health plan like the university’s 85/60 PPO plan. If you would typically choose your health plan by premium cost, be sure you understand the tradeoff for a lower monthly premium.
The HDHP requires you or your family to pay the full cost of your health care, including your medications, until you reach a fixed dollar amount. This is called your plan’s annual deductible.
