Part D: Prescription Drug Plans (PDP)

Part D covers prescription drugs through standalone plans for those on Original Medicare, or as part of a Medicare Advantage bundle. Among the 10 standalone Part D plans in 65011, MO, some offer $0 annual deductibles while others charge up to the 2026 maximum of $590. 2 plans are at or below the regional premium benchmark, making them eligible for Low Income Subsidy auto-enrollment. The 2026 $2,000 out-of-pocket cap means drug costs are now more predictable regardless of which plan you choose, but formulary coverage still varies significantly—always verify your medications are covered before enrolling.

Part D Formulary Notice: Each Part D plan has its own formulary (list of covered drugs). The same medication may be on different tiers—or not covered at all—depending on the plan. Always check that your specific medications are covered before enrolling.
2026 Out-of-Pocket Cap: Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, your total out-of-pocket drug costs are capped at $2,000 per year in 2026. Once you reach this limit, you pay nothing more for covered Part D drugs for the rest of the year. This eliminates the old "donut hole" coverage gap that previously caused higher costs.
Low Income Subsidy (LIS / Extra Help): If you have limited income and resources, you may qualify for Extra Help paying Part D costs. Visit SSA.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE.

Top Part D Drug Plans in 65011, MO

We organize Part D plans by CMS Star Ratings, premiums, and deductibles so you can find the best fit for your prescription needs. Part D premiums in 65011, MO range from $10 to $126/month. Remember: all Part D plans now cap your annual out-of-pocket drug costs at $2,000 thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act.

Local Medicare FAQ: 65011, MO

Common decision points based on 65011, MO's specific plan market and local healthcare landscape.

How does 65011, MO's Medicare Advantage market compare?

65011, MO has 45 Medicare Advantage plans from 7 insurers. This is roughly in line with the national average of approximately 57 plans per area. The local mix includes 22 HMO and 21 PPO plans. Plan availability updates annually during the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 – December 7).

Should I choose an HMO or PPO Medicare Advantage plan in 65011, MO?

With limited hospital access nearby, a PPO plan (21 available) could be worth the extra cost for out-of-network coverage, especially if you need to travel for specialized care. In 65011, MO, HMO plans dominate the market, which often means more competitive HMO pricing. Always verify your doctors are in-network before enrolling in any plan.

What's the real cost of $0 premium plans in 65011, MO?

42 plans (93% of available options) in 65011, MO charge $0 beyond the standard Part B premium. This high percentage reflects strong insurer competition in the area. However, $0 premium doesn't mean $0 cost. These plans may have higher copays, coinsurance, or out-of-pocket maximums. In 65011, MO, maximum out-of-pocket limits range from $3,200 to an average of $6,569. We recommend calculating your total expected annual cost (premium + copays + drug costs) rather than choosing based on premium alone.

How does the 2026 $2,000 drug cap affect 65011, MO beneficiaries?

The Inflation Reduction Act capped annual out-of-pocket drug spending at $2,000 starting in 2025, eliminating the old "donut hole" coverage gap. This applies to all 10 standalone Part D plans in 65011, MO.

What this means locally:

  • Cost predictability — No matter which of the 10 Part D plans you choose, your drug costs are capped at $2,000/year
  • $0 deductible options — Some local plans offer $0 deductibles, meaning coverage starts immediately
  • Low-income options — 2 plans meet the regional benchmark for Extra Help/LIS eligibility

While the out-of-pocket cap standardizes maximum costs, formulary coverage still varies significantly between plans. A drug that costs $5/month on one plan's formulary might cost $50 on another. Always check that your specific medications are covered and compare tier placement before enrolling.
