Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg Not Covered

HeyMOE Tip

Don’t panic if you see “Not Covered” next to Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg — you’re not missing something. Every 2026 Part D plan excludes Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg, and we’re already one step ahead by identifying other Metformin options that are covered through our "flagged" manual review process of HeyMOE results.
Switching to a different doseage and quantity of Metformin could save you thousands.

What’s Happening

Early HeyMOE results show that no stand-alone Medicare Part D drug plans will cover Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg in 2026.

That means if you take Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg, your Part D plan will not pay anything toward the cost of that medication next year — and since it’s not covered, your spending will not count toward your Part D out-of-pocket limit.

In other words, you’d be responsible for the full retail cost of Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg.

What This Means for You

If you currently take Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg, you’ll have two main options for 2026:

1. Pay Out of Pocket

The cash price of Metformin Hydrochloride 750mg averages $7,000 per refill — clearly not realistic for most people.

2. Switch to a different doseage/quantity of Metformin Hydrochloride

Several Metformin Hydrochloride dosages are included on 2026 Part D formularies, such as:

• Metformin Hydrochloride 500mg

• Metformin Hydrochloride 1,000mg

Talk to your prescribing doctor before December 7 to see whether switching to one of these different dosages makes sense for you.

What HeyMOE Is Doing

HeyMOE automatically checks your medication list to determine whether a drug is covered under any Part D plan and, if not, your account is flagged for manual review.
