GoodRx: Medicare Part D plans cover smaller percentages of available drugs, more likely with restrictions

I guess we will all learn more about the $2000 part D Medicare cap and it’s fine print over time. I’m starting a new med later this month. Retail price is $3500 or so/month but fortunately it’s on the formulary and my copay is supposed to be <$1000/month but with the drug card from the pharmaceutical company (not asset nor income based but only available to folks meeting criteria), no copay!

We don’t have a part D because we use the drug plan that’s with H’s group plan that he had when we retired and we can keep as long as either of us is alive. The plan has been pretty good and I just checked and found my copay for my over 9 drugs over past 12 months was <$1000.
