Part D Gets an A: Private Medicare Drug Plans Are Serving Customers, Saving Money
House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
Abstract
The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform examined the Medicare Part D prescription-drug benefit program and the Majority’s criticisms of the program. Despite initial challenges, Part D has been hailed as one of the most successful federal program rollouts, providing more drugs to seniors than ever before. The report states the Majority's argument against private firms' efficiency in delivering services fell short, as Part D has proven effective, popular among seniors, and cost-efficient, with significant cost reductions and access to the latest drugs.
