BEC list serv members,

Sharing highlights from ACL communication which came out last night. 

·         Plan Finder Update: As indicated above, we’ve heard multiple reports this week about concerns with how the monthly drug pricing breakdown displays for a portion of beneficiaries when they reach the catastrophic limit. I wanted to let you know that CMS is aware of this issue and they are actively working to put a solution in place as soon as possible.  Also, they assured me that their investigation showed that this issue began on Friday, October 25 and therefore didn’t impact activity or comparisons that you might have conducted before that date. We’ve agreed to continue to have regular conversations about Plan Finder throughout the rest of OEP.  I will continue to pass along updates to you as soon as I have them from CMS.
