Medicare+Choice: Payment and Service Areas
(Report)
Final Report |
Author(s): Katie Merrell |
Organization(s): Center for Health Administration Studies, University of Chicago |
This report addresses two distinct, but closely related, questions: What are the key factors that led plans to reconfigure their Medicare risk plan service areas in 1998 or to not renew their contracts with Medicare? Should Medicare continue to allow plans to design their own Medicare service areas, or should there be predetermined Medicare+Choice contract areas in each market area? |
