When you say "I paid $1 or I paid nothing", you need to state which type you received: Shingrix or Zostavax. Both are available. They have different co-pays too.
For Tier 5 drugs you usually have a $395 deductible first then you pay 25% of the total cost after that deductible on an "Advantage Plan".
