What does Ozempic cost with Medicare Part D? Most plans do not cover ozempic or semaglutide unless you are diabetic. The cost of Ozempic with Medicare Part D can vary quite a bit depending on: Your specific Part D plan Whether you've met your deductible Which coverage phase you're in (initial, coverage gap, or catastrophic) And whether your plan considers Ozempic a preferred brand or not Here's a general idea of the cost breakdown: Deductible Phase (if not met yet): You pay full price — usually around $800–$1,000 for a 1-month supply. Initial Coverage Phase (after deductible): You typically pay 25% to 40% of the retail cost. That comes out to about $200–$400/month depending on the plan. Coverage Gap ("Donut Hole"): You still pay 25%, but it’s based on the full drug cost, so it may not change much from the initial phase. Catastrophic Coverage Phase (after total drug costs reach a certain amount for the year): You pay much less — usually just 5% of the drug's cost or a small copay (around $10–$50/month). Pro Tip: Plans can vary by zip code, so if you're paying too much for Ozempic, it might be worth checking if there's a Part D plan in your area that covers it at a better tier next enrollment period.
