I’m trying to discover anticipated prescription costs to quote a health plan, but I’m having trouble. Would love advice on how to approach this best.

When comparing health plans on HealthSherpa, you can estimate prescription drug costs by first visiting their website and entering your location and other relevant details. Once you’ve browsed through the available health plans, click on each plan to review its details, including prescription drug coverage. Look for information on how each plan covers medications, such as copayments, deductibles, or coinsurance, and check if your specific medications are included in their formulary. Estimate your annual prescription costs based on your anticipated healthcare needs, including the number of prescriptions and their average costs per refill. Compare the total annual costs of each plan, considering both premiums and out-of-pocket expenses for other healthcare services. Keep in mind that actual costs can vary based on individual factors like health conditions and medication needs, so choose a plan that fits your budget and healthcare requirements best.

Use the prescription drug coverage tools available on the official healthcare marketplace website or on individual insurance provider websites. These tools let you enter specific medications to see estimated costs under different plans.
