And we are off!! I am truly honoredand privileged to lead this organization.

One of the ways we can do that isto treasure what we presently have.

I am looking forward to a year filledwith opportunities. I ask each and every-one of you to join in our Societys missionto remain a strong voice for dentistry. Nomatter the workplace situation, we all have a

common goal to help the public. We striveto do this in the most ethical and respon-sible way, while balancing a wonderful fam-ily life. This year, IDDS offers 2 GeneralMembership Meetings, a Women DentistsSeminar, a Networking Seminar, OSHAand CPR seminars, and an Ethics seminar,just to name a few events in which you canbecome involved.

I hope to continue the leadership ourSociety has had. I appreciate the Societys

members and encourage their ideas. Iplan to open our members eyes to the everchanging dental environment, welcomingmore and more new members. I, with yourhelp and the help of Indiana dentists, willwork for loan repayment for our dentistsin underserved areas. I am confident withour dedicated membership these goals canbe met.

I encourage each and everyone oneof you to get involved. Make 2016 theyear that you change, No, I am too busyto Yes, how can I help? Your help canpreserve and protect our strong Society. Iwould like to thank all the Officers, theBoard, the committee members and IDDSStaff, Carolyn and Paige, for all they do forIDDS.

Medicare and Medicaid Part D Enrollment

Must I tell them I want toopt out? What happens if I donothing?

On October 20, the Centersfor Medicare and MedicaidServices (CMS) issued a bul-letinoutlining changes to, andthe delayed enforcement of, the

tions under Medicare Part D,a dentist must do one of thefollowing: Enroll as a Medicare

provider; Enroll as an ordering/

referring provider; or Opt out of the Medicare

program.

Go to this link formore information:-http://www.ada.org/en/publications/ada-news/2014-archive/june/dentists-must-choose-to-opt-in-or-out-of-medicare-enrollmentQ.What happens if I choose

not to do any of the above?A.As of June 1, 2016, this is

Dr. Jason Flannagan

Part D prescriber enrollmentrequirement and to provide clar-ifying information regarding theenrollment process. The enforce-ment date is June 1, 2016.

In order to ensure yourapplication is processed in atimely fashion, CMS is urgingprescribers of Part D drugs,including dentists, to submittheir Medicare enrollment appli-cations or opt-out affidavits totheir Medicare AdministrativeContractors (MACs) by January1, 2016, so that Medicare PartD prescriptions are coverable onor after June 1, 2016.

As a reminder, in order forMedicare to pay for prescrip-

what will happen if you choosenot to do any of the above: Thefirst time you write a prescriptionfor a patient with a MedicarePart D drug plan, the plan willgive the patient a provisionalsupply of the drug and a let-ter stating that because of yourMedicare enrollment status, thedrug will not be covered after thefirst three months. The Part D

plan must also make reasonableefforts to notify you. At the endof the three-month period, if youstill have not done any of theabove, the plan will deny cover-age for any prescription that yougive that patient for that drug.
