Medicare Coverage for Dermatology Medications
Protopic — Prescription Drug Benefits
Protopic does not satisfy the definition of a Medicare Part B drug or biological, therefore coverage for Protopic is available under Part D.
Medicare beneficiaries who are enrolled in a Part D plan may have coverage for Protopic if it is included on their Part D plan's formulary. Some plans may require prior authorization or step therapy for Protopic or impose quantity limitations on how much Protopic can be dispensed to the patient during a specific time frame. It is important to understand how a patient's specific Part D plan covers Protopic, as each plan may have different coverage and cost share requirements for Protopic.
