Creditable Coverage Notice for Prescription Drug Coverage:
Medicare-eligible Ambetter Health clients will be receiving your Notice of Creditable Coverage letters.
The Medicare Modernization Act (MMA) requires issuers whose policies include prescription drug coverage to notify Medicare eligible policyholders if their prescription drug coverage is Creditable Coverage.
Creditable Coverage means the coverage is expected to pay on average as much as the standard Medicare prescription drug coverage.
If you are, or soon will be, eligible for Medicare benefits you will receive their Notice of Creditable Coverage for prescription medications as required by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
This notice states that your current Ambetter Health plan includes Creditable Coverage for your prescription medications, meaning the drug benefit are expected to cover, on average, as much as the standard Medicare prescription drug coverage.
If you receive this notice, it is important to know that you might be required to provide a copy if requested for eligibility into a Medicare drug plan.
