As I understand it, the Medicare Part D law was deliberately designed to prohibit the Medicare administrators from negotiating directly with the drug companies on drug prices. So, it was Congress (and the drug lobbyists) that didn't want Medicare to save money on drugs, not the agency that executes the Medicare Part D law.
