Pharmacy Partnerships

Simplete streamlines relationships with pharmacies to help lower costs for you by having a pharmacy network.

You must use an in-network pharmacy to get covered drugs unless it’s an emergency. For a list of in-network pharmacies, view our pharmacy directory at simplete.org/medicare, or request a copy using the card in the back of this guide.

Save with Simplete.

Every opportunity to save money is important, especially when it comes to prescriptions. That’s why Simplete offers special savings programs to help you lower the cost of your medications. Here are some of the ways you can save with Simplete:

No Pharmacy Deductible – All Part D plans begin with full benefits immediately. There is no pharmacy deductible you have to meet first.

90-Day Supply Savings – Limit your trips to the pharmacy with two convenient options. With our mail-order benefit, you can get a 90-day supply of your drugs delivered directly to you for two copays. If you prefer to get your drugs at a retail pharmacy, you can visit any in-network pharmacy and get a 90-day supply for three copays. Medication Therapy Management – If you take multiple medications, our complimentary Medication Management Service helps you use them safely and effectively.

Financial Assistance – You may be eligible to receive financial assistance for your prescriptions through the Extra Help program. To see if you qualify, call one of the following:
