This is what we did and it was helpful to a point. My main concern was getting coverage for my $17,000 per month tier 5 specialty drug. The sight gave me pharmacies for my specific medication in my area and what I would be paying only to find out later that none of these pharmacies can actually get my meds. Even their specialty drug department couldn’t get it. Very misleading and frustrating.
Via benefits provided me with the best plan D options to go with and explained each in detail. Then finally the insurance carrier I chose gave me the info I needed as to how and where to get my meds
The process took a lot of research, calls and actually walking into various pharmacies before I finally was able to get the issue solved. I’d be up a creek if I had relied solely on the information provided by the government on this website you suggest.
