Copay accumulator
What is Copay accumulator?
A plan design that stops manufacturer copay assistance from counting toward your deductible or out-of-pocket maximum.
You still get the card's benefit while it lasts, then land back at full cost with the deductible untouched. Common on commercial high-deductible plans for exactly this class of drug.
GLP Watchdog writes these definitions from FDA labels and peer-reviewed PubMed literature.
