Your medical benefit: to most, it’s the most important benefit we have available, but many of us don’t use our plan to the fullest. Medical benefits are not just for when you are sick… For example, if you use preventive benefits when you are well, you might actually be able to avoid getting sick!
Understanding your prescription drug benefit, and knowing how different types of medications will be covered, can help you save money and learn how to talk with your doctor about your options.
