6 PAYMENT TO FEDERAL GOVERNMENT - MEDICARE DRUG PROGRAM PROGRAM STATEMENT The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA, Public Law ) created the Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit, effective January 1, A number of the Part D beneficiaries are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid. Prior to implementation of Part D, persons in Pennsylvania eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare had their drug benefit covered by Medical Assistance, Pennsylvania's Medicaid program. Thus, when Part D was developed, a provision was included in the MMA requiring the states to continue making payments for prescription drug coverage for dual eligibles, and continue providing direct coverage of drugs excluded from coverage under Medicare Part D, but covered under the state Medicaid program. The State payment is made on a monthly basis and was designed to reflect 90 percent of the estimated State savings to the Medical Assistance Program for calendar year This percentage was phased down by 1.67 percent annually until reaching 75 percent in The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) worked with the states to collect historical prescription drug payment data to develop a state-specific Per Capita Expenditure (PCE).. Annually, the PCE is adjusted for growth in national per capita drug spending and adjusted for the annual change in the state-specific Federal Medical Assistance Percentage, to reflect the State share of the per capita costs. The CMS notifies the States annually of the PCE for the forthcoming calendar year. The Commonwealth's monthly Part D payment is the product of the PCE, the phase-down percentage and the number of individuals who were eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid in the month for which the payment is being made. 139
