1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of the currently
approved collection.
Title of Information Collection:
Collection of Drug Event Data From
Contracted Part D Providers for
Payment.
Use: In December 2003, Congress
enacted the Medicare Prescription Drug,
Improvement, and Modernization Act of
2003 referred to as the Medicare
Modernization Act (MMA). The
Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit
program (Part D) was established by
section 101 of the MMA and is codified
in section 1860D–1 through 1860 D–41
of the Social Security Act. Effective
January 1, 2006, the Part D program
establishes an optional prescription
drug benefit for individuals who are
entitled to Medicare Part A and/or
enrolled in Part B. Part D plans have
flexibility in terms of benefit design.
This flexibility includes, but is not
limited to, authority to establish a
formulary that limits coverage to
specific drugs within each therapeutic
class of drugs, and the ability to have a
cost-sharing structure other than the
statutorily defined structure (subject to
certain actuarial tests). Coverage under
the new prescription drug benefit is
provided predominately through private
at-risk prescription drug plans that offer
drug-only coverage (PDPs), Medicare
Advantage (MA) plans that offer
integrated prescription drug and health
care coverage (MA–PD plans) or through
Cost Plans that offer prescription drug
benefits.
The transmission of the data will be
in an electronic format. The information
users will be Pharmacy Benefit
Managers (PBM), third party
administrators and pharmacies and the
PDPs, MA–PDs, Fallbacks and other
plans that offer coverage of outpatient
