The Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 introduced Medicare Part D, which is a program that provides prescription drug coverage to Medicare eligible individuals effective January 1, 2006. The implementation of the Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit requires employer groups to send Creditable/Non-Creditable Coverage Disclosures to all Medicare eligible employees, retirees and their Medicare eligible dependents. See the links below for additional information on the new Medicare prescription drug benefit and how MVP is helping employers with the Medicare Part D requirements.
