Note that pts with NO part D plans had >30pp MORE calcimimetic rx fills after the policy ‼️
(A limitation is that pts w/o Part D plans *could* have been receiving calcimimetics thru drug samples or an employer-sponsored plan, which wouldn't have showed up in our data.)

What role do you think Medicaid/insurance status plays here? I could imagine patients with Medicaid alone prior to dialysis initiation have poorer access to high-quality nephrologists (and less pre-dialysis nephrology care overall).
