The explosive growth in Medicare Advantage (MA) enrollment over the last decade is significantly impacting providers' bottom lines.

During a webinar presented on April 10, 2024, PYA's Martie Ross and Kathy Reep discussed regulations impacting MA plans and providers' interactions with the plans. Specifically, Martie and Kathy addressed these important points:

• 2025 MA rate announcement
• Prior authorization final rule
• Coverage criteria and utilization review regulations
• Impact of changes to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services-HCC risk adjustment model
• MA enrollment and marketing restrictions
• Out-of-network payments for emergency services
• MedPAC report on MA reform

The webinar was part of PYA's twice-monthly Healthcare Regulatory Roundup, a popular series during which PYA experts provide practical insights on the latest industry regulatory developments.
