Medicare FAQ
Do you accept my Medicare Part D plan?
Yes! AV Chemist accepts ALL Medicare Part D plans. We're in-network with every Part D prescription drug plan available in New York.
How much will my prescriptions cost with Medicare?
Costs depend on your specific plan and the medication tier. Many generic medications are $0 copay. We'll check your exact copay before filling and recommend lower-cost alternatives when available.
What is the Medicare "donut hole" and how does it affect me?
The donut hole is a temporary coverage gap in Part D where you pay more for medications. AV Chemist tracks your spending, alerts you when approaching the gap, and helps find cost-saving strategies to minimize impact.
Can I transfer my prescriptions from another pharmacy?
Absolutely! Call us at (929) 387-8111 and we'll transfer all your prescriptions from any pharmacy. The transfer process takes 15-30 minutes and doesn't affect your Medicare coverage.
