A provision of the 2010 Affordable Care Act restrained the annual growth in the amount of Part D out-of-pocket spending that’s required to qualify for “catastrophic” coverage — the phase at which co-insurance is the lowest. The provision is scheduled to expire at the end of 2019. This could mean that Medicare Part D beneficiaries will have to spend more out-of-pocket which could significantly increase the financial burden of people with the highest drug costs.
