Description
The purpose of this evaluation is to examine the impact of the Part D benefit on the broader Medicare Program as well as its impact on sub-populations of Medicare beneficiaries. To accomplish its purpose, the study is divided into three separate components. The first component is an analysis of the impact of the Part D benefit on the traditional Medicare program. The other two components involve analyses of the impact of the Part D benefit on the Medicare Advantage program and on beneficiaries with chronic conditions.
