Doughnut Hole Calculator From AARP Has Advantages and Limitations



The AARP Doughnut Hole Calculator was created by AARP to help Medicare Part D beneficiaries avoid the gap
in prescription coverage, dubbed the "doughnut hole," that occurs after they've exceeded their basic Medicare
Part D coverage but before they reach the catastrophic coverage threshold.

The changes suggested are based on economic reasons without knowledge of the patient's medical history. It's
important to remember medications tried in the past that didn't work.
