Some beneficiaries of Medicare could start paying less for 27 prescription drugs from next month as their prices have exceeded the rate of inflation.

“Today, the Department of Health and Human Services [HHS], through the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), announced 27 prescription drugs for which Part B beneficiary coinsurances may be lower from April 1—June 30, 2023,” said a March 15 CMS press release. “Some people with Medicare who take these drugs may save between $2 and $390 per average dose starting April 1, depending on their individual coverage.”
