Creditable Coverage for Medicare Part D
As you may know, all Medicare-eligible individuals are eligible for a prescription drug program. As an employer, you are required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to notify Medicare-eligible persons covered under your plan by October 15th of each year about whether their existing prescription drug plan is at least as good as the standard Medicare prescription drug program, also defined as “creditable coverage.” We’re providing information that may assist you in this notification process.
