Eliquis is a drug that we get asked about on a daily basis. It is used to prevent blood clots and is often prescribed when a patient has various heart-related issues or post-surgery.
Eliquis is about $570/month retail, but with the right prescription plan the cost is $47 month for the majority of the year. A handful of Medicare Advantage plans and some Part D plans cover Eliquis, but it is important to be in the right plan due to the fairly expensive retail price when Eliquis is not on your plan's formulary list.
A great tool for determining how well your plan - or competitor plans - cover Eliquis is using Medicare's website: www.medicare.gov. Or, if you prefer, we're always happy to run reports for you free of charge.
