Medicare Advantage

Today, over half of all Medicare beneficiaries are enrolled in Medicare Advantage (MA) plans, and our members care for many of these patients. As a financing model emphasizing preventative care and value, MA aligns with the goals of both multispecialty medical groups and integrated systems of care, resulting in improved care at a reduced cost. MA plans incentivize team-based care, resulting in the provision of the right care at the right time.

Congress should ensure MA reimbursement supports the ability of multispecialty groups and integrated system of care to deliver high-quality care to beneficiaries, while also reviewing any policies, such as prior authorization, which result in care delays and administrative burdens and reduce the use of these policies in MA plans.
