Farm Bureau Select Rx 2023 Coverage

Farm Bureau Select Rx is a prescription drug plan approved by Medicare. This plan offers a large network of pharmacies, which have contracted with the plan to provide your covered prescription drugs at negotiated prices. There are certain pharmacies that have agreed to special pricing, known as Preferred Cost-Sharing Pharmacies. Your copayment and coinsurance will be lower when you use a Preferred Cost-Sharing Pharmacy. Generally, the plan does not cover prescription drugs purchased at an out-of-network pharmacy.

Farm Bureau Select Rx includes two Preferred Cost-Sharing Pharmacies: Kroger and Walmart.

Farm Bureau Select Rx does not have a deductible and coverage begins with the initial coverage stage. The monthly premium for Farm Bureau Select Rx is $97.20.
