2008 Colorado Medicare Part D Plans
Soon after gold was discovered near Denver, the region around Pikes Peak became the Colorado Territory. Other names, such as Colona, Jefferson, Osage and even Idaho, were suggested and discarded in favor of Colorado, Spanish for "red" in reference to the color of the water of the Colorado River.

A few notes to help with the understanding of the 2008 Medicare Part D Plan chart above.
- Plan Name: This is the official plan name from CMS
- Deductible: This is the $275 deductible that was presented in the CMS Standard Plan. Many provider's plans do not have a deductible, however the premium may be higher.
- Qualifies for $0 Premium with Full Low-Income Subsidy?: If Yes is in the field, then you would pay a $0 premium if you have a Full Low-Income Subsidy. If No is in the field, then you would be responsible for the difference between what the state provides as the Full Low-Income Subsidy and the actual cost of the plan even if you have a Full Low-Income Subsidy.
- Coverage Gap the Donut Hole: In the CMS Standard Plan, the beneficiary must pay the next $3216.25 in drug costs (the Donut Hole). Many provider's plans cover the costs that fall into this category for an additional premium. In our chart, you will see one of the following:
- No Gap Coverage: you must pay the $3216.25;
- Some Generics, All Preferred Generics, All Generics : Various Generics are covered, but you must pay for Brand Drugs up to $3216.25;
- All Generic & Some Brands: One regional plan, only available in Florida covers all Generics and some of the Brands.
- Benefit Type: Basic means that this plan follows the standard CMS plan. Enhanced means that this plan has features above and beyond the standard CMS plan.
- Plan ID: This is the unique id for this particular plan.
