Wiki Medicare part D

[barbacasec]

Can anyone tell me a little about Part D. Do providers bill out for it at all or is it done through the pharmacy? I know that Part D isn't actually paid for by Medicare and that the patient needs to have a private insurance to cover part D but how/who bills out for the drugs? What if they are drugs given to a patient while they are in the hospital?
Any information would be great or if anyone knows of a helpful web site other than the regular CMS and Medicare site that would be great.....

thanks
