A single prescription tier change can add thousands of dollars in unexpected healthcare expenses to a senior’s budget in 2027.

During Medicare Open Enrollment, most people focus on the monthly plan premium. But for many, the real cost driver is the Drug Formulary.

How Drug Formularies Change Year-to-Year:

• Tier Restructuring: A maintenance drug can move from a low-cost Tier 2 to a specialty Tier 4 overnight.
• Prior Authorization Requirements: Your carrier may require new doctor approvals for drugs you’ve taken for years.
• Pharmacy Network Edits: Preferred retail pharmacies can be removed from your plan’s network, increasing retail co-pays.

Taking 10 minutes to run your exact drug list through an independent comparison tool ensures you aren’t paying double for the same medication next year.
