PTCD_INDICATOR
This variable indicates whether the Plan is Medicare Part C, Part D or both. All Part C and D Plans are included in the file.
| Code | Code value |
|---|---|
| 1 | Part C only plan (any non-FFS; not all are MA) |
| 2 | Part D only plan |
| 3 | Both Part C and D plan |
You may use this field to identify plans that offer either only the Part C benefit, the Part D benefit, or both. Note that plans that are identified as Part C may include other nonfee-for-service plans such as some demonstrations (i.e., not all plans identified as Part C plans are Medicare Advantage managed care plans).
