How the class comparison works

What Medicare paid

Medicare Part B’s payment limit for HCPCS Q0166, for 2026-10-01 to 2026-12-31, comes to $23.22 for 30 tablets, or $0.774 per EA once converted to NADAC’s unit for this product.

Medicare Part B pays for this oral drug at a pharmacy only in specific circumstances CMS sets for this code; most prescriptions are paid by Part D.

The patient’s share under Part B (coinsurance, 20% of the limit, before deductibles and other coverage) is $0.1548 per 1 MG.

2 of the product’s 7 NDCs have this Medicare figure; the other 5 do not, and the interactive card says why for each.

Medicare's price is not your price.

What to ask at the counter

None of these figures is your price: what you pay depends on your pharmacy, your insurance, coupons and discounts.

• What is your cash price for 30 tablets? Is it lower than what I would pay through my insurance?
• If you have Medicare Part B: is this drug covered for me in this setting, and what is my share?
• These are questions about price, not medical advice. Do not change or stop a medicine without talking to your prescriber or pharmacist.
