As far as I can find for MA, drugs are excluded from MOOP. So you will
not have a cap on drug costs.
It also looks like if you can find a MA plan without drug coverage the you could also
get a part D plan. There are not that many without drug coverage.
Real interesting if you get a MA plan with drug coverage, you have to hunt
for the info that drugs are excluded from MOOP. They say it is part D coverage
but it really is not. Pretty sneaky. Also on the plan finder for MA without drug coverage
it just says you will have to pay for all the drugs, does not mention to go get a part D plan.
Heck I have some friends with conditions, they are on like 12 drugs a day.
I can see that some older folks that may not be up to snuff in their mental capacity
really causing themselves problems by picking the wrong plans. The gov't and insurance
companies are not making it easy.
