The new voluntary prescription drug benefit program was enacted into law on December 8, 2003 in section 101 of Title I of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA). The MMA specifies that the prescription drug benefit program will be available to beneficiaries on January 1, 2006. Coverage for the prescription drug benefit will be provided under private prescription drug plans, or through Medicare Advantage prescription drug plans. Organizations offering drug plans will have flexibility in the design of the prescription drug benefit.
