Excel file Medicare Part D 2017 Plan Report 10182016.xls 16. Sheet Alabama to Montana 17. Important Notes: 18. 1 This file includes contracts/plans as of October 17, 2016. The data does not reflect information for Employer sponsored plans, Part B only plans, or plans not offering a Part D drug benefit (Medicare Advantage only plans, HCCP Cost plans, etc.). 19. 2 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. 20. 3 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. 21. 4 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. 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. 22. 5 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. 23. 6 Part D Premium Obligation with Full Premium Assistance: This column indicates the total Part D premium a beneficiary receiving a full low-income subsidy would pay for a plan. If column M, with the header "Part D Basic Premium Below Regional Benchmark?" in the states tabs, is listed as "Below Regional Benchmark" and the Part D Premium Obligation with Full Premium Assistance is <$2.00, then that portion is waived by the plan. 24. 7 Tiers Not Subject to Deductible: In 2017, plans can indicate tiers where the deductible does not apply. This is a flag to capture instances where the plan has some tiers that are exempt from the deductible. 25. 8 Increased Initial Coverage Limit: The Increased Initial Coverage Limit column specifies (with a "Yes") any plans that have increased the initial coverage limit applicable to Part D drugs (from the standard $3,700). 26. 2017 Plan and Premium Information for Medicare Plans Offering Part D Coverage 27. Alabama to Montana. Includes contracts/plans as of October 17, 2016. The data does not reflect information for Employer sponsored plans, Part B only plans, or plans not offering a Part D drug benefit.1 28. * See next worksheet for important footnotes. 29. planreportn_to_w2017 data set up by Jean Roth , jroth@nber.org , 6 Dec 2016 30.
