Field Ops Memo 2005-03: Medicare Prescription Drug Discount Program Rules

This memo provides instructions for implementing the Medicare Prescription Drug Discount Program in 2005. Field Operations Memo 2004-43, dated November 2, 2004 is now obsolete. The instructions in that memo were inaccurate as a result of subsequent USDA guidance. Based on those instructions, there may be AUs containing MPDDP participants which were processed incorrectly. Central Office is reviewing these AUs and if further action is necessary, instructions will be issued in a future Field Operations Memo.
