Everybody's medicare plan covers various medicines and prescriptions depending on what tier the medicine is placed in. A medicine tier is just a category or class of medicine. If you are prescribed a low tier prescription it will cost less than a high tiered one. However if you are prescribed a high cost drug then there is a chance you and your doctor may be able to find a similar low classed medicine and prescribe that instead to save you money.
Medicare part D works in conjunction with parts A and B and covers prescription medications. As medications are ridiculously expensive, this is an important part of medicare.
Regular Medicare A or B does not cover ED or almost any other medication. You may find Medicare Part D plans that cover ED medications by going to the Medicare.gov web site and searching for Part D plans that do cover the medications you are using. You can also look into Medicare Advantage plans with prescription coverage for the same.
The medications that you can get on Medicare part D are listed on the Medicare website. Some of them are generic, but some of them aren't generic. It depends on your prescription.
