The answer depends on where you get your quotes and what search engine provides them for you.

Look for a company online that keeps current with all the changes in the health care insurance field. A company that can not only explain things to you in plain English, but also tell you how the plan you may be interested in will work for you and your family.

You’ll want a company that knows what it’s doing, like Benepath. Benepath has recently partnered with Quotit.com to provide you access to over 10,000 health insurance agents nationwide. Plug in your zip code and you you’ll get an insurance quote from a local agent in your area. None of the generic “We think this would work for you,” kind of quotes.

That’s because many of them are in states no where near yours, and are only getting information from you to provide a generic quote, or sell your information to others for profit.

When you find one that knows your area and all the minute details those others don’t, then stick with them, because they will be with you every step of the way. They’ll also be able to tell you insider information about which plan would work the best, which network would meet your needs and how to adapt your plan to ensure you see the doctors you want to see.

Wouldn’t you rather have someone in your area telling you these “need to know things” rather than someone in another state guessing what you may or may not need?
Personal service is hard to come by these days in the online insurance world and when you do find it might be just what the doctor ordered. Personal service from a competent health insurance agent is worth its weight in gold and it’s FREE.

The different tiers have different costs and not every plan is the same when it comes to tiers. Some may have more, and some may have less. There are also instances when you may need to take a drug in a tier higher than the one you are in because your doctor wants you on that drug. This is where you file an exception.

There is also something called coverage rules that ensure certain drugs are used the right way and only when they are required. Information on how the Formulary and coverage rules work can be obtained by talking to your local health care insurance agent.

There are instances when a drug you’re on is taken off the Formulary, however you get 60 days advanced notice of the change. Your options are change drugs, pay extra for it or ask for an exception. What usually happens is you will be allowed to continue taking the drug until the end of the year. This would give you lots of time to make other arrangements.

Using the Formulary for your plan generally saves you money, as will using generic brand drugs. They’re exactly the same as brand name drugs, just less expensive. Virtually half of the prescriptions picked up today are generic drugs. There are some cases where you can’t get a generic drug as a substitute for a brand name drug. Your doctor should be able to suggest an alternative.

This is called the Formulary, and it usually has a wide range of the most commonly prescribed drugs available.

Trying to figure out which drug plan is the best for you and your family in terms of drug coverage is sometimes a difficult thing to accomplish. Everyone may be on different medications, and not all of them are on the Formulary of the plan you’re looking at. Choosing a drug of a similar kind, asking your doctor to change your prescription or asking for an exception may solve this problem.
