_dta: 1. planreport2006 data set up by Jean Roth , jroth@nber.org , 17 May 2015 2. Excel file Medicare Part D 2006 Plan Report 11-10-05.xls 3. Sheet Medicare Plan Report 4. Important Notes: 5. 1 This file includes contracts/plans approved as of October 23, 2005. The data does not reflect information for Employer sponsored plans, plans not offering a Part D drug benefit (Medicare Advantage only plans, HCCP Cost plans, etc.), or plans that were not approved by the 'As of' date of the chart. 6. 2 Part D Payment Reinsurance Demo: The Part D Payment Demonstration reduces identified disincentives for providing enhanced alternative coverage. Enhanced alternative coverage includes supplemental benefits such as eliminating the deductible or filling in part of the coverage gap. For more detailed information see: 7. http://www.cms.hhs.gov/pdps/PartDpymntdemo.pdf 8. 3 Part C Premium: The Part C premium for Medicare Advantage Plans, Cost Plans, and Demonstrations covers Medicare medical and hospital benefits, and supplemental benefits, where offered. Beneficiaries generally are also responsible for the Part B premium. 9. 4 Part D Basic Premium: The Part D Basic Premium covers the basic prescription benefit only and does not cover enhanced drug benefits, medical benefits, or hospital benefits. Note: the Part D Basic Premium is net of any Part A/B rebates applied to "buy down" the drug premium for Medicare Advantage plans. Beneficiaries are also responsible for their Part B premium and any premiums for Medigap coverage to meet their individual needs. 10. 5 Part D Supplemental Premium: The Part D Supplemental Premium covers any enhanced benefits that may be offered by a plan above and beyond the basic (standard) Part D benefit. These benefits may include extra coverage in the coverage gap, lower copayments than the standard benefit, coverage of non-Part D drugs (e.g. benzodiazepines), etc. Note: the Part D Supplemental Premium is net of any Part A/B rebates applied to "buy down" the drug premium for Medicare Advantage plans. 11. 6 Part D Total Premium: The Part D Total Premium is the sum of the Basic and Supplemental Premiums. Note: the Part D Total Premium is net of any Part A/B rebates applied to "buy down" the drug premium for Medicare Advantage plans; for some plans the total premium may be lower than the sum of the basic and supplemental premiums due to negative basic or supplemental premiums (which are displayed as $0.00). 12. 7 Increased Initial Coverage Limit: The Increased Initial Coverage Limit column specifies (with a dot) any plans that have increased (from the standard $2,250) or eliminated the initial coverage limit applicable to Part D drugs. 13.
