Summary of Bill S 1105

Bill 119 s 1105, also known as the "Medicare Advantage Risk Adjustment Improvement Act," aims to make changes to the way risk adjustment is calculated for Medicare Advantage plans.

Currently, Medicare Advantage plans receive payments from the government based on the health status of their enrollees. This is known as risk adjustment, and it is meant to ensure that plans with sicker patients receive higher payments to cover their increased healthcare costs.

The bill proposes to improve the accuracy of risk adjustment by using more up-to-date data and accounting for additional factors that may impact a patient's health status. This could help ensure that Medicare Advantage plans are adequately compensated for the care they provide to their enrollees. Overall, the goal of this bill is to make the Medicare Advantage program more efficient and effective by ensuring that payments to plans accurately reflect the health status of their enrollees. This could ultimately lead to better care for Medicare beneficiaries and a more sustainable program for the future.
