Castellani Highlights Part D’s Success in Hill Blog

06.14.13 | By Liz Magsig

Craving some health policy news on a Friday afternoon? Check out an op-ed [1] that ran in The Hill today from our CEO, John Castellani, on Part D.

He discusses Part D’s remarkable track record [2], and calls out a brand new study [3] on the off-setting power of Part D for beneficiaries with congestive heart failure (CHF). The study [4] found that Part D has led to more than $2.3 billion in annual savings for Medicare by reducing medical expenditures for beneficiaries with CHF without prior comprehensive drug coverage.
