  3. Medicare Modernization Act Creates Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Benefit • MMA establishes a Medicare outpatient prescription drug benefit beginning in 2006 • Administered through private, risk-bearing plans; not directly by CMS • Two types of plans will exist: Prescription Drug Plan (PDP) and Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) Plan • Enrollment is voluntary1 • Of estimated 43.1 million Medicare beneficiaries in 2006, HHS expects 29.3 million (68%) to enroll • Initial enrollment period starts 11/15/05 and ends 5/15/06 • 6.3M dual eligibles will be automatically enrolled on 1/1/062 • MA-PD plans will automatically enroll the majority of MA beneficiaries, ~4.5-5M 1 6.3 million beneficiaries dually eligible for Medicare & Medicaid will be automatically enrolled into PDPs, but may choose to disenroll 2 HHS projected enrollment equals 91% when including 9.8 million beneficiaries estimated to have creditable drug coverage through an employer

  4. Transaction Complexities • Limited information available on the program transactions • Illustrative timing and transactions • 1/1/06 12M enrolled mostly dual eligibles and MA-PD enrollees—dually eligibles average 3.5 scripts per month and many will require secondary payer inquiries • Remaining estimated 17M beneficiaries will have staggered enrollment from February through May of 5, 5, 4 and 3 million each month respectively • Average monthly scripts for all beneficiaries is 2.4 • Fills and refills require eligibility queries and claims that include Medication Therapy Management Program (MTMP) inquiries supported by each plan • 60% of beneficiaries have two or more chronic conditions and will be targeted by MTMP plans.
