Focus on Grantee Publication

A new publication highlighting Bruce Stuart's HCFO-sponsored research helps policymakers understand the implications of the design of the new Medicare Part D drug benefit. "Assessing The Impact Of Coverage Gaps In The Medicare Part D Drug Benefit" examines a representative sample of Medicare beneficiaries with naturally occurring prescription benefit gaps between 1998 and 2000 using data from the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey. This article by Bruce Stuart, Ph.D., of the University of Maryland at Baltimore, and colleagues appeared this spring as a Web-exclusive on Health Affairs.
