HealthChoice SilverScript High and Low Medicare Supplement plans offer the same Medicare supplement medical benefits for both plans. The difference in the high and low plans is in the pharmacy coverage.
The HealthChoice pharmacy benefit manager, SilverScript, is contracted with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to provide Medicare Part D Prescription Drug benefits. These Part D benefits are available through the HealthChoice SilverScript High and Low Option Medicare Supplement Plans. The HealthChoice Pharmacy Network includes more than 68,000 pharmacies nationwide.
