AHIP Describes Viewpoints on Medicare Advantage in 79 Page Memo to CMS

This summer, CMS held a request for information on potential new directions for the Medicare Advantage program, a sort of national "temperature check."  

Medicare Advantage is important to anyone working in health services for patients, as it will soon be 50% of the Medicare program.

One interesting entry point (for your next 3-hour flight) is a 79 page memo from America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) to CMS on potential changes and new directions for the Medicare Advantage program.
