Read previewSome Medicare recipients could save thousands of dollars on out-of-pocket drug costs next year as even more boomers reach their spending threshold.
In 2023, 50.5 million Medicare beneficiaries were enrolled in Part D plans.
About 65 million people in total are enrolled in Medicare, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
If the national cost cap had been in place in 2021, KFF estimates that 1.5 million Medicare beneficiaries would have seen relief.
Are you a Medicare beneficiary who has seen relief from the out-of-pocket drug cost cap?
