AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would change the Medicare prescription drug program (Part D) rules about people who lose their drug plan coverage because they did not pay their premiums. Under current law, losing coverage for not paying premiums is not treated as involuntary. The bill would let the Secretary of Health and Human Services write rules naming circumstances in which a loss of coverage due to nonpayment of premiums would be treated as involuntary.
