This information collection will
survey disenrollees from Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (PDPs)
and Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug Plans (MA-PDs). The
Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of
2003 (MMA) provides a requirement to collect and report performance
data for Part D prescription drug plans. Specifically, the MMA
under Sec. 1860D-4 (Beneficiary Protections for Qualified
Prescription Drug Coverage) requires CMS to conduct consumer
satisfaction surveys regarding PDPs and MA-PDs - pursuant to
section 1860D-4(d). This data collection complements the
satisfaction data collected through the Medicare CAHPS Survey by
providing dissatisfaction data in the form of reasons for
disenrollment from PDPs and MA-PDs.
CMS proposes to delete eight
items from the MA-PD survey; four items from the MA-only survey,
and six items from the PDP survey to reduce respondent burden. The
collections respondent and hourly burden has decreased from the
last approved version.
