The Coverage Gap
Donut Hole
The “Donut Hole” is the period of coverage when you and your carrier reach a defined out of pocket expense. This is known as the “Coverage Gap.” When you are in the “Donut Hole” you will pay more than your plan’s agreed percentage for Prescription Drugs. Please refer to the chart on the left for specific coverage information for 2024.
This is intended as a basic reference guide, all information is subject to change. We recommend contacting one of our senior account managers for more information regarding your situation.
