MGMA RESPONDS TO CMS RFI ON MEDICARE ADVANTAGE TRANSPARENCY

MGMA responded to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Request for Information on Medicare Advantage (MA) transparency. As the number of MA beneficiaries continues to grow, it is imperative that the MA program ensures adequate and transparent coverage to patients, timely payment to medical groups, and remains a viable pathway for medical groups to participate in value-based payment arrangements. These priorities cannot be achieved without accurate and robust data on MA utilization management practices including prior authorization, onerous care denials, and value-based contracts.
