Register for Part D Payment Modernization Model Overview Webinar

The Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (CMS Innovation Center) is hosting a webinar to provide a basic overview of the Part D Payment Modernization Model. CMS will host two sessions including the same content, which will take place on Thursday, January 31, 2019 at 1:00 p.m. EST, and on Wednesday, February 6, 2019 at 1:00 p.m. EST.

If you previously registered for the Part D Payment Modernization Model webinar originally scheduled for Tuesday, January 29, 2019 please re-register for one of the new dates.

During the webinar, CMS subject matter experts will provide information about The Part D Payment Modernization model, which tests the impact of modernized Part D program design and improved incentive alignment on overall Part D prescription drug spending and beneficiary out-of-pocket costs. The model is open to eligible standalone Prescription Drug Plans and Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug Plans that are approved to participate, is voluntary, and will last 5-years, beginning with the 2020 plan year.

As part of the model, CMS will provide participants with additional programmatic tools, including Part D Rewards and Incentives programs, to increase engagement with enrollees, with the goal of promoting better enrollee understanding of: (1) their Part D benefit, including out-of-pocket and total drug costs; and (2) clinically-equivalent therapeutic options. These efforts will improve beneficiary access to lower cost, effective medications, promoting adherence and affordability.
