Tiered curtains impart a homey, country feel to a room. These generally consist of four short panels, each about the length of 1/2 the height of the window in which they are to be hung. One pair is hung at the top of the window and the other halfway down. The bottom pair may then be opened to admit fresh air or closed for privacy while the top is opened to let in sunlight.

To have lower costs, many plans place drugs into different "tiers," which cost different amounts. Each plan can form their tiers in different ways. Here is an example of how a plan might form its tiers. Example: Tier 1 - Generic drugs. Tier 1 drugs will cost you the least amount. Tier 2 - Preferred brand-name drugs. Tier 2 drugs will cost you more than Tier 1 drugs. Tier 3 - Non-preferred brand-name drugs. Tier 3 drugs will cost you more than Tier 1 and Tier 2 drugs.
