Description: The 2022 Inflation Reduction Act included six key Medicare Part D reforms, enacted between 2023 and 2025. Most notably, this includes the 2025 implementation of a $2,000 annual cap on out-of-pocket costs for prescription medications and the launch of the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan, which patients will need to opt in to take advantage of. However, recent national polling by the PAN Foundation finds that many patients are unaware of the reforms and how they will benefit from them in terms of access and affordability. An intentional focus on educating patients about reforms and policies that impact them is essential to ensuring they are active participants in their own healthcare journeys.
